Happens on both windows XP with IE 8 and Windows 7 with IE 9, both with JAWS 13. I've noticed for a while now, that I have some issue signing into amazon. If I click on Your account I don't see anywhere to put in my username and pwd. Only after I click on wishlist or orders, or one of those

Hi, Dan. This has been going on quite a while, at least it has for me, but I'm using an older version of JAWS, still with IE 8 and XP, though. If you click the my account link, you're taken to a page containing a list of links that lists all of the info you can see pertaining to your

That's the trouble, any site that hasn't kept up with their security can be hacked. Another problem, especially with certain browsers is that sites often have ads on them from other places, sometimes those can be hacked. I really suggest people consider firefox along with the no script and

To be honest with you, the name of this web site sounds a little suspicious to me, so I would probably think twice about accessing it. I also use AVG Link Scanner to alert me to web sites that might be potentially unsafe. Gerald - Original Message - From: Steve

Oh yes, I didn't mention that. I usually don't stay signed in and I'm the only one using the PC here. Too security conscious, I guess. It still doesn't explain why they don't just pop up a log in screen once the my account option has been clicked on. I've lost my mind. If found handle

As far as I can determine, the keep me signed in only lists your user name, not your password. Each page you go to to order something, Amazon will ask for your email address and password as it's been my experience. I have had no trouble whatsoever with this check box or with ordering online

OK, since this is really no longer a JAWS issue, I'll just wrap it up with this note. I don't have any real problem shopping on amazon, I use it regularly and did virtually all of my Christmas shopping there. I was just wondering if I was missing something since I was not immediately offered
