Hi Chris.
I have, actually, been using the computer for over five years and I am aware of
setting up the computer so that everything is like Windows 98 but I prefer the
other layout as you use fewer keystrokes, for example windows key c for control
panel - but Brian's computer is set up exactly the same and yet his control
panel works correctly is it anything to do with which jaws layout I am using?
I usually set it to laptop layout which seems logical - I believe if I use
classic then favourites in internet explorer doesn't show up.
As for the laptop staying online now I really cannot understand that but am
grateful for it.
I seem, also, to have been slightly premature as once and only once I could
link onto something in an email.
I can link onto addresses it's links in websites that are included in emails
that won't work.
Hope all of this makes sense.
Mandy.

Mandy, let's sort your internet connection out before we can help you with
your strange control panel thing. Personally I know what it is, but as you're a
beginner I don't want to give you too much, if you see what I mean. I could, if
you want though, e-mail you privately with instructions on how to change the
appearance, so that Control Panel, as well as My Computer/Windows Explorer,
appears and functions like that of Windows 95/98? Just trying to help.

Hi Chris.
Yes this also comes under the heading of strange because I never used to
have a problem with Outlook Express - it is really bugging me why does there
always have to be a problem?
Not only that: if I go to control panel and want, say, add/remove, the
letter a doesn't do it which is also annoying I just wish everything would work
properly for just even a short while.
At least internet connection doesn't appear to be a problem now perhaps I
should just be thankful for small mercies?
Mandy.

Mandy, you're saying that you've set your e-mails to HTML, yet you can't
click on links? It's just I don't have any problems doing this using Outlook
Express 6 and JAWS 8.0.423 demo.

Hi All.
Having spent the weekend emailing this list and boring everybody rigid
about my router problems everything now seems to be working fine for no
apparent reason so thanks for help and I've saved relevant advice and will take
appropriate action if it happens again.
Apparently Virgin Media do provide a router but don't know what kind of
quality it is or whether they would set it up for us.
Now I am still plagued by this problem of not being able to link onto
things in emails - I removed and reinstalled Jaws but no good and I don't think
there are viruses on here - is it worth using one of the repair Outlook Express
options you find if you search Google or is that risky? I saw a link about
|Outlook Express 7 but then could only find 6 which I already have.
Or is it worth uninstalling Outlook Express from the Windows XP disk
and seeing if that makes a difference?
Mandy.
