[nvda] Re: OT: login on pages of the European Commission crashes IE

Firefox is almost identical to using Internet Explorerin terms of browsing. If the person wants information about using it, she can listen to my tutorial dealing with Firefox and Webvisum, which explains the basics of both. The part of the tutorial that deals with Firefox deals mostly with going over configuration options because browsing is literally just about identical to Internet Explorer. there are some small differences in terms of using features like the location tool bar conveniently which I discuss. If the person takes a little time to listen to the tutorial, or at least the first part, which deals with Firefox. she won't have to worry about using it. The link to the download page is:

Go to the very bottom of the page, and start up arrowing. The download link is literally almost at the bottom of the page. Much farther up the page, is a link to my free Internet tutorial. I would advise anyone who doesn't use the Internet efficiently or with reasonable ease to download and listen to it but that is a completely separate download from the firefox/Webvisum tutorial.

Subject: [nvda] OT: login on pages of the European Commission crashes IE
Hi all, as this is a bit off topic, please direct any comments or suggestions to voy44@xxxxxxxxx 
A friend has problems on many EU institution websites.
Using IE7 and JAWS or NVDA, she tries to input her data, name and password, and upon that, IE crashes, giving the standard error reporting message "IE has detected a problem and needs to be closed.". It seems to affect both JAWS and NVDA, I do not know whether she tried it without any speech loaded and a sighted person watching the screen. She tried many things, from enabling and disabling coockies, playing around with internet zone security settings, but nothing so far. I know this sounds rather vague, but I cannot give out any address to try this, since this would require disclosing user name and password, sorry for that. 
Is there anything one might try to solve this annoiing problem?
FF 3 is quite new to her, and she doesn't feel very comfortable using it.

Best regards,
Nermin
