Hi Jim, To run Internet Explorer 7 you will need to update your Jaws to 7.1 which is, of course, free as you have already got Jaws 7.. As far as the Combo box problem is concerned you may need to bring up forms mode as well as doing an Alt cursor down to open the list.

Although my computer boots up and according to the screen and my sighted friend, the computer is ready to use within a minute but it is often 5 to 10 minutes before JAwS begins to tell me the computer is ready to use. 2. When selecting information from a combo box, such as month and year options, I can open the combo box but JAWS does not read the options which can be selected. 3. When reading documents, at times JAWS appears to read words at random from elsewhere on the page. I would be grateful if someone had found a solution to these problems.
