Beware: Internet Explorer 7.0 Not Fully Supported By Some Current Screen
Readers

By Darrell Shandrow

Microsoft has released Internet Explorer 7.0 this morning, but you may not
want to jump on the banwagon yet. It is known to work well with Window-Eyes
5.5,
but is not fully supported by other current screen readers such as Freedom
Box System Access and JAWS 7.1. It will be necessary to await an upcoming
release
of an upgrade of these screen readers for Internet Explorer 7 support. In
some cases, full screen reader support for Internet Explorer 7 is going to
require
payment of an upgrade fee if the user does not hold an active Software
Maintenance Agreement with the vendor. Before downloading and installing
Internet
Explorer 7, please, do yourself a favor and ask your screen reader maker if
they fully support the latest version of this web browser before plunging
ahead.
Taking this prudent step may prevent a lot of unnecessary grief.
