Hi Graham
It does work if you have the latest version of JAWS running.  The problem is
that you pay through the nose to keep JAWS working, whether or not you want
the latest improvements, and the improvements seem to happen at about one
per update, meaning you pay hundreds of pounds for each one, no matter how
many times you have paid already.  I have quite strong views on this, but do
not wish to be controversial.

Hi all; 

Can someone please explain what the problem is with using the latest
standard version of Firefox which is 61 I believe as not having any problems
with it at this end using the latest build of j2018 pro.  Cheers!  Graham

Hi list
Turns out the fix Sight And Sound did for me yesterday, after I'd hung on
the phone for an hour, lasted less than 24 hours.  Firefox is automatically
updating again and has removed my ability to work online, other than via
email, thankfully.  

Can anyone advise me, please, as to whether it is safe with JAWS to now use
IE instead?  I moved from IE to Firefox when IE got ropey with JAWS, but has
IE now become more usable than Firefox?

Many thanks for any help.

Amie

I do accept that jaws needs to change its licensing model because everyone 
now needs to be up to date because of the changing nature of windows 10.
I would suggest a fee of £6 a month would be reasonable, maybe allowing people 
to pay £60 up front.
They are introducing this now in the US but it has taken a long time.** To
