Thanks, Floor. I've seen that in Adobe sometimes too but have the latest JAWS, so am not sure why that comes up sometimes. It is not consistent. This student's IE8 dialog is consistent though, even if she goes to another web page. I told her I thought she'd have to uninstall IE8, but wanted to see if anyone else had experienced this same problem before going that route.

It is an insufficient version of JAWS reading. you could close the window, and get rid of the dialogue; but you might also get rid of internet Explorer then too. A similar scenario sometimes may happen with pdf documents opened in Adobe Reader. however, that occurred in a separate window, and hasn't bothered me for some time. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Don and Cher Bosch" <oneagleswin...@bellsouth.net> To: <jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com> Sent: Thursday, September 24, 2009 1:01 AM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] JAWS7.1 & IE8 problem >I mentioned in my message that I am aware of that.
