What I think I understand from this that you must mean that when you first 
try to download something, which automatically would launch your existing 
Audible Manager, you're interrupted and put through an update procedure, 
which leaves you with a brand new version of Audible Manager.  Yes?

Okay, that's what I think you mean.  Then, you say something about how the 
*site* requires the Jaws cursor, and so forth.  From the context, I think 
you mean Audible Manager.  And Audible Manager isn't a site; it's an 
application.  It's a program on your computer, not a Web site.  Hope that 
helps.

P.S.  Now, since you said it was fairly useless, I'm not really looking 
forward to reading that booklet of instructions for the redesigned 
audible.com site.  Oh, well.  Thanks for your comments.

When you go through the manager update sequence, you will have pretty clear
instructions. Basically, if I recall correctly, you will be asked to turn
manager off and then you will be guided through the install process. You can
leave the titles in the in box, and they will migrate into the new manager
in box.

The problem with the site is that you have to navigate a lot with the JAWS
cursor and if you are lucky, you can use the pc cursor to jaws key
combination and you might get into the folder you want. But if you try to
move through the folder, you will likely get kicked out.
