Re: [JAWS-Users] Intro and Internet Explorer Problem
yes, it stores a cookie for amazon. but all you have to do is log out of one amazon site and log in to the other to replace the cookie and amazon will remember the last web site you logged on to and use that one each time unless you change back again to the normal site. -Original Message- From: Steve Sent: Saturday, September 30, 2017 9:42 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Intro and Internet Explorer Problem I believe when you install the access page for Amazon, it stores a cookie on your machine so it will remember that you want the access page every time you open your browser.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Intro and Internet Explorer Problem
Not just cookies, but probably more likely cache. A good clean out in the IE browser, as you suggest, should solve the problem. Last night I did both that and a CCleaner clean to solve a problem I was having getting sound to play on a certain website. It worked. I don't think you have anything to lose by deleting any Amazon cookies beyond having to sign in one more time, unless you like having Amazon know your purchasing history. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Gerald Levy Sent: Friday, September 29, 2017 12:59 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Intro and Internet Explorer Problem Yes, this sounds like a problem with cookies.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Intro and Internet Explorer Problem
save your amazon password first. grin if you are being logged on to amazon automatically you have to log off first. then use the accessibility page and log on. then you will get to that site. you will have to log off again to go back to the normal site or else you will have the same problem. it will keep going back to the accessibility site. -Original Message- From: Glenn At Home Sent: Friday, September 29, 2017 9:00 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] Intro and Internet Explorer Problem Hello All, This is Glenn in Northeast Nebraska.
