I mentioned in my message that I am aware of that. I've seen that pesky dialog somewhere before though and need to figure out how to get rid of it even if wehave to uninstall the program on this student's computer.

IE 8 supports a lot of new stuff on web sites, that 7 didn't. JAWS 7 does not have the built in support for these things. JAWS 10 did a pretty good job with IE 8 but JAWS 11 works even better with it. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Don and Cher Bosch" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, September 23, 2009 5:13 PM Subject: [JAWS-Users] JAWS7.1 & IE8 problem > A student with IE8 is getting this dialog every time she opens IE8: > "Open parent document button."
