You have to press Insert + Control + F for Find command to work correctly.  
Control + F does not work with JAWS.

  Kerby,

  When you're in Firefox 3, and press Insert+q, does it say default settings 
are loaded or Firefox settings are loaded?  I had to do some playing around in 
a JAWS configuration file to get the Firefox scripts to load.  Then when I 
looked at the script file, it didn't look like it had been modified since JAWS 
8.  But with the default settings loaded, the Find command did not work 
correctly.

    Jaws 9 works just fine with firefox 3 and I signed up with myspace and 
webvisum worked great and was able to do it without assistance.  I love it.  
Also, there's a conference that was archived on accessibleworld.org that 
somebody did last Monday on webvisum too.

      As I recall, someone on the list posted a message saying that he was 
having trouble getting Webvisum to work.  I too had trouble getting it to 
recognize a CAPTCHA until today.  I found that the checkbox for loading images 
in the Options dialog under the Tools menu of Firefox 3 was unchecked by 
default.  A CAPTCHA, which is a graphic image, can't be found by Webvisum if it 
doesn't load into the browser.

      Once I allowed images to load, I was able to solve the CAPTCHA on 
YAHOO.COM and set up an account without assistance.

      To read about Webvisum and see what else it can do, go to

      http://www.webvisum.com

      Since you will need Firefox 3 for Webvisum to work, you might want to 
wait for the public beta of JAWS 10, which is supposed to have better support 
for this version of the browser.
