Just a brief correction--it's insert v not alt v.  Mark

        You can temporarily disable flash.
         
        1.  Hit alt+v to bring up the verbosity control.
         
        2.  Hit the letter "f" three times to get you to the flash
control.
         
        3.  Hit the spacebar to toggle to flash off and hit enter to
save the new setting.
         
        This will disable flash for the seession in which you are
working.  You can disable flash more permanently in the configuration
manager, but you may want to have flash for some items.  I suppose you
could disable it in configuration manager and then use the same
keystokes as set forth above to togle it on when you need it.

        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?
