Rosemary. All people that use Firefox say it is more secure. And maybe 5 years ago this may have been true. IE has come a long way now and you will have to decide for yourself. Given the fact that you're using such an old version of jaws, maybe its best you stick with what you know to work rather than what works best.

Hi, Andre, My brother-inlaw said that firefox was more secure than internet explorer. I know firefox works great with NVDA. Maybe IE 7 or 8 would work great with it too. I have Jaws 5.10 and that won't work with the newer versions of internet explorer. I'll give it some thought and let you know if I decide to upgrade or not. Thanks very much for your help.
