 hi robert and gang
 yes it is jaws 8.0 i am using and ie 8.
i heard there were issues with compatability perhaps this is what is causing the problem with jaws not reading links.
 so
 anyone know how i roll back to ie 7----- Original Message ----- .

 also
i can type a e mail message on the pc but when i up arrow to read what i have typed jaws just says From: "Robertblank , is there something i should adjust in jaws configuration manager.

things are quite messy as you can imagine since laptop went down. on that note briefly eircom tell me that due to a microsoft update that came in the ip configuration was changed and that in order to get my laptop to connect properly i need to reload with my recovery discs, of course they have disappeared or the dog ate them. anyone come across this problem on laptop and if no recovery disc how did ye fix it.
 have tried restore system but no luck.

i have a feeling i will be ever so slightly more knowledgeable with a little help from you folks after all this!!!!

 all help gratefully received.
