It depends. Sorry I can't give a more definitive answer, but some features
of IE 8 work fine with JAWS 9, while others don't. For instance, the JAWS
read Address Bar command, Insert-A, does not work with JAWS 9, although I
understand that it does work with the latest build of JAWS 10. And
depending on which IE add-ons you have enabled, some web pages may not load.
Try it for yourself. If it doesn't work for you, you can easily uninstall
it and revert to IE 7 like I did.

Hi Chris,
Actually, I am using JAWS 9 on that computer. Is this version of JAWS
compatible with IE 8?
God bless,

If you're using JAWS 8 or earlier then IE8 won't work for you. I suggest
reverting back to IE7 if your screen reader doesn't work with IE8.

Hi
Today my IE 7 decided to update to IE 8. I thought it sounded like a
good idea. So, I told it to go ahead. Now it will only run with add ons
disabled and when I bring up my home page (Google) it says I need to press a
button to open parent document. First, how do I turn on add ons in IE 8 and
second, how do I get IE 8 to display the real Google page?
Thank you for your help.
God bless,
Mark

If it was easy, everybody would be doing it.
