Running debug is accessible.  Send the error report & you will be taken to the 
MS website where you will be given a description of the error.  Never really 
helps but you never know.  Once I did get a fix that solved the problem.

  Thanks Chris.  You're right.  I should have said that I'm running Windows XP. 
 I don't really recall installing outside pop-up blockers.  In fact, I went to 
IE tools and turned off the popup blocker to see if that would do the trick.

  I'll throw something else into the mix here.  Sometimes, (and it didn't 
happen before) when I'd try running Kazaa, it comes with a message saying that 
IE has some kind of error and asks if I want to debug it.  I hit "No" because I 
think debugging it would be somewhat inaccessible, and when I do hit no, it 
will work OK.  I just have to get past that error message.

  Any more ideas?
  Jim

    Hello.



    You did not say which operating system you are running.  It sounds like the 
problem that I was having when I installed a third-party pop-up blocker.  It 
may have been the yahoo pop-up blocker.



    I believe the sound you are hearing is telling you that a pop-up has been 
blocked.



    I hope this helps.



    Chris.

    Hello there,



    I'm hoping I could get some help with a computer problem I've begun having 
over the past month or so.  Just so you know, I am still running JFW 5.1 on my 
computer, and it was working wonderfully for quite some time.  However, I'm 
wondering if it's not an Internet Explorer problem rather than JAWS.



    Lately, I've gone to different web sites and have begun having problems 
accessing links using the "Enter" or the "Space Bar."  I've generally always 
been able to access links in this way, but now what happens is that it tries 
going there but rather than going to the link, it gives me a different kind of 
loud click and then just stays where I left off, so it ends up looking like it 
didn't do anything or go anywhere and just stays there until you try clicking 
on another link.  Now, some of these links can be accessed by using my JAWS 
cursor and clicking the left mouse button key, but I don't want to have to keep 
doing that all the time.  I'm sure it has something to do with my computer 
because when I go to these websites on other computers, things seem to go 
normally, as expected.  I did try checking for the obvious viruses and spyware. 
 I also tried repairing JAWS thinking it could be an MSAA thing.  It's 
happening more with more lengths. Thanks again!



    Jim
