As you discovered, JAWS 8 does not work well with IE 8.  You need to roll back 
to IE 7 by removing IE 8 using the Add/Remove Programs option on the Control 
Panel.  Don't worry, you won't completely remove IE from your computer, you'll 
just restore IE 7 to the way it was before you installed IE 8.

  Hey everyone,

  My Windows Update just had me update my Internet Explorer to version 8.0: Big 
mistake. Now I can't seem to use any of the toolbars and browsing webpages is 
impossible. All it reads is the title of the page and a "Open parent document" 
button. When I try to left or right click, hit enter or the spacebar over that 
selection it does nothing.

  I have no idea how to go back to IE 7 or fix this so IE 8 will work with my 
jaws... please help!

  -Marc
