Yes, same thing with me applying it to firefox 34, beta3, running vista32. I'm 
not sure if WE doesn't see the checkbox in ie8 or 9, which I would be running. 
I had to uninstall that Mccaffee security scan plus. It does no good anyway.

Subject: The missing checkbox

Well, my Flash complained, it needed an update. I went to the website, and 
remembered from earlier cases, that you need make sure to uncheck the one and 
only checkbox on that website, or you will find yourself with some bloatware 
from McAFee installed. With WE8.4, this was not much of a deal. hit the X-key, 
and you landed on the checkbox.

Yeah, that was in the "old days"; wasn't it? With WE9B3 running, and thereby 
the new brose mode, there is no chance. Not in Internet Explorer, nor in 
Firefox. You can hit that x-key from now and until the moon raises. All you 
hear, is "No Checkboxes".

Strange thing, I reasoned. Would it really be the case? Could it really happen 
that they finally grasped some sound reasoning, and removed the bloatware? 
Well, how long do you think I was lefft with that impression?
Only till I arrowed my way down the page. It sure enough, gave the same old 
silly information, to install the Mcafee thing. Simply just no checkbox to 
uncheck.

Finally, I loaded NVDA. OK, I know, the new browse mode is under development, 
and I know this is only a Beta. But when a free screen reader manages to see a 
checkbox, which our paid-for reader used to see; I simply report this as a 
clear-cut bug and missing in the new browse mode. Unless anyone else have luck 
in seeing it, bringing me to the conclusion that I must have messed up things 
locally.

Have tried this over several days, in both browsers, in three different User 
Profiles, and only get the same result. WE does not recognize the checkbox on 
that site. Just wondering how many other checkboxes the new browse mode does 
ignore. In fact, I had the same experience in a netshop the other day. Before I 
can pay my basket, it requests me accept the sales agreement, by checking a 
checkbox. No chance with the new browse mode. It does not recognize there is a 
checkbox, only reads the text as plain text. You can hit spacebar on it, and it 
tells you the keystroke is "Wrong". You can search for a checkbox, and it 
reports there is no checkbox on the page. You can do what you want, but it does 
not cooperate.

Staff members, can you reproduce?

Other listers, anyone else see this missing checkbox stuff?
