[blparent] shopping on line question

[Tammy]

Hi,

She most likely doesn't have any malware or a virus, just an old version of 
jaws and a new version of internet explorer.  Ie and jaws fight all the time 
and pages load slow and links don't read or click properly.  Try finding the 
accessibility link as veronica suggested previously.  If that doesn't work 
you might try contacting these stores by phone and ordering that way.  It's 
not the most convenient but this time of year it will take less time then 
waiting and waiting for the pages to load.  Also, did you try downloading a 
demo of jaws 14 and seeing if that does correct the problem?  you can use 
the demo for 40 minutes at which time you have to reboot to use it again. 
Also not the idea solution but it might be helpful in some circumstances.

hth

Tammy

I can think of at least two possible problems, it could be that your old 
version of JAWS doesn't know how 'to deal 'with things  on the web page, and 
or you may have some sort of virus or malware. That kind of delay isn't 
normal.  Dave
