Hello:
As someone else on this list said, that webpage is heavily coded with Java 
script.  If you don't turn of the virtual cursor and try to read the page with 
the JAWS cursor, I don't believe it will display correctly.

  greetings
  When do you need to turn off and when to turn on the virtual cursor? What
  advantage is it to turn off the virtual cursor?
  excuse nme for asking this question.
  thanks.

  Next, route the JAWS cursor to the PC cursor, do a page up, and then move
  down until you reach a line that reads something like:
  > Test Size: 25 Kilobytes  Test Type: Download Start Test
  > the Start Test at the end of that line is a button.  You will need to move
  the JAWS cursor to the word Start and do a left mouse click.  Once the test
  has begun, the button will have changed to Stop test.
  > Wait until it reads Start test again, then continue moving your JAWS
  cursor down to view the results of the test.
