Thanks, where can I get Firefox then?  I might load it on my laptop to try 
it out before loading it on my desktop since I use my desktop for my job.

Hi Troy, Firefox has little difference compared to Internet Explorer in 
terms of both using it and surfing the web. All the JAWS web page navigation 
features will work, and pages load in the virtual buffer exactly the same 
way as they do in IE. I highly recommend Firefox for its reliability, safety 
and security, as well as speed. Hope this helps.

What are the differences between IE and Firefox?  Would I access the
internet differently through Firefox than I do through IE and is surfing the
internet any different using Firefox?  If Firefox works better than IE and
isn't much different than IE I might try it.

Hi, Troy. Another option you might consider, if you haven't already, is
installing Firefox, which found even more on the website than IE6 with
pictures on.
