Ray,
Here's the Sun Java page with a description of Access Bridge and links for
downloading current version 2.0.1:
http://java.sun.com/products/accessbridge/
Note. I didn't bother with the special Sun download manager, as recommended
on that page. I just clicked on the Access Bridge link itself, saved to my
desktop, and then let the application's wizard take over. It's a very smooth
process.

So, I reinstall Java access bridge then? Where can I find that; assuming I
lost it somewhere? Sounds like your help has so far been the most helpful.
Thanks.

Hi, Gerald and Ray,
I had many of these problems with Amazon and other websites until I handled
Java correctly. Each time I accept a Java update, I go back to my Java
Access Bridge .exe file and reinstall it, as Sun Micro recommends. this
two-step procedure has solved almost all my Web problems using Firefox,
which has numerous advantages over IE7, including speed at opening pages,
low generation of temporary files, the Webvisum feature, and so on. I have
the latest release of JAWS 10 and XP.

To be perfectly honest Ray, I have so many issues with Firefox that I use it
only for the Webvisum image captia feature. I find that JAWS does not always
announce the contents of a web page accurately, and of course, there is no
audible notification of RSS feeds. I have never encountered any problem with
Amazon.com using IE 7.

Subject: my issue with Firefox
I really loved Firefox. Why loved instead of love, simple. When I went to:
www.dominos.com to order Pizza one night, Firefox kept crashing on me every
single time I went to add my order to their shopping card. This also
happened every single time I tried to log on to: www.amazon.com and I could
get no help at all from tech support what so ever. The forum was worse than
useless and no matter what I tried, I just couldn't get it to work. Has
anybody else out there had this happen; and, if so, what were you able to do
to fix it; if it was fixable?
Also, I noticed that JAWS was not reading Firefox dialogs such as security
alerts such as when you are about to open a secure page ETC.
