Adrian, Good to hear about success with IE 11 and JAWS 15. I've had several occasions with IE 10 and JAWS 15 in various web sites where freezing occurs, and requires NVDA to break the log jam. I think I'll give IE 11 a spin. Also using Win 7 but a 32-bit version, with the latest JAWS 15 upgrade.

I'm having no problem navigating Amazon with IE11. I just now made a purchase in a matter of seconds from opening up the homepage. I've even found that the website has improved recently because I was having problems working with pages where one of the options is to have an item sent regularly, such as once a month. I couldn't get the one-time purchase to work; now I can. I've avoided updating to the latest release of JAWS 15 based on reports here of problems other users are having, so I'm still at version 15.0.7023. My system is Win7, 64-bit. -----Original Message----- From: Jfw [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of cecropia64--- via Jfw Sent: Tuesday, July 22, 2014 7:33 AM To: Gerald Levy; The Jaws for Windows support list.
