I am not a teacher, so these directions are far from perfect, but I hope they are adequate.
To change settings in Jaws 10 and at least a few earlier versions that I know of, so that links and headers are not announced while viewing a web page: Open configuration manager Control o to open Internet explorer configuration file (press I a few times) set option in menus (alt s) Select speech and sounds manager choose "web rent a crowd" " Jaws will bring the Web alive by reading headings, links and graphics using different voices." Hit okay to bring you back to configuration manager Save settings when exiting, before leaving configuration manager. Jaws will no longer announce any links or headings. I hope this helps.
