Marvin, Have you been able to confirm whether this is actually a problem with the display of your page, or a problem with the way that Jaws is interacting with IE ? It might be that the font _is_ Times, but Jaws is mis-leading you. Not too sure what else you would be able to 'see', but have you been able to prove that IE is seeing your stylesheet at all. For me, I would slap a garish border or background colour onto some random element, but I appreciate that you can't do that on your own.
