if you need to visit the same page quite frequence, you can save a personalize 
setting for that particular page. just press 
JawsKey+shift+v, then arrow down to "flash movies - on", press spacebar to 
toggle to the off selection and finally tab to close 
button. the next time you revisit to the same page again, the flash movie will 
be auto disable and you'll hear jaws announce 
"personalize setting" right after jaws read the title for the page.

hope this helps.

Hi all:

as I have come to work with two different versions of JAWS and two
different versions of IE on a daily basis, I've noticed that JAWS 6.2
and IE 6 behave much bettter when it comes to flash on pages. it seems
that when you're navigating through a page with IE 6 and JAWS 6.2 that
it let's you go passed the flash with no problem. however, when in IE 7
and JAWS 8 every time you encounter a page with flash and you try to go
past it JAWS brings you back to the top of the page. a perfect example
of this would be on the livejournal website, www.livejournal.com.
sometimes people make voice posts, so there is a flash bit before the
actual link to the voice post. does anyone know a way to make JAWS 8 and
IE 7go passed the flash without bringing you constantly back to the top
of the page?
