Hi -- it doesn't work.
I called FS support to see if it was a jaws issue.  We changed a setting using 
insert+v but that didn't affect the email problem.
After some more poking around the tech guy concluded it wasn't a jaws problem 
and I was on my own.  I have been through all the options I can find that are 
remotely involved in starting IE -- IE7 is my default browser.  But I can't get 
any links to activate from within emails. Oh, with one exception: email 
addresses open a mailto link.
So if anyone has any ideas I'm all ears.
TIA

    Hi -- I am wondering if anyone else has noticed that links embedded in 
emails no longer work -- It could be jaws 10 or it could be OE, or even the 
content of the emails, but I have been unable to click on links in emails and 
go to the appropriate page for several months now.
    If anyone has comments, please share.  I can't even swipe the link and 
paste it in IE7 to go to the links.
    It is very annoying.
    Thanx

      For all its virtues, it's not a very accurately named program. *smile*

      It will burn CD's, DVD's, even the new generation of blue ray discs. Also 
contrary to its name, it is advertised to run on XP, Vista, and Windows 7.

        does it do DVD's as well, and anything else? 

        if so I'll take a look and if good looking to me, or vaunted by others 
out here, I'll add it to my useful software list.

          I haven't seen CD Burner XP mentioned yet, I'm quite fond of it.

            I need to burn an iso to dvd on my Windows XP OS machine. Is there 
an easy to use and accessible app out there you know of?
