It's definitely the websites. I have JAWS 18, and IE just will not work properly on some sites I use often, now, like goodreads.com. The programme also crashes a hell of a lot more than Firefox does. IE is basically a dead browser. That's why microsoft is pushing Edge so hard with Windows 10. Of course, IE will still continue to be somewhat supported, at least until Windows 7 and maybe 8 are no longer suppoted, because I don't think Edge works with those operating systems at all. But Microsoft is also fully aware that users can use Firefox or Chrome.

But I still have an older version of Jaws, which is 14 and I wonder how much that plays into things. I know the person initially who asks has Jaws 18, but I just wonder how much the version of Jaws has to do with the accessibility of the browser, or is it just the changes in websites these days in general.
