[nfbcs] What's different about Google and JAWS?

Hi there,

I guess I didn't clarify.  The thing is that I no longer see the cached link
or anything like that.  I just see the first thing that you would hit enter
on, arrow down and see the two buttons, and then arrow down again and see
the URL.  Nothing else.  It just moves to the next search.

If you arrow down past a link on the google results page that is labeled
"cached", you will find an excerpt of text from the site linked to above.
Hope this helps.

Hi,

I have the same problem, and I don't like it either.
