It is still a JAWS issue as such. It is an insufficient version of JAWS
reading. you could close the window, and get rid of the dialogue; but
you might also get rid of internet Explorer then too. A similar
scenario sometimes may happen with pdf documents opened in Adobe Reader.
however, that occurred in a separate window, and hasn't bothered me for
some time.

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.

That could be because JAWS 7.1 don't support IE 8. 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.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] JAWS7.1 & IE8 problem
A student with IE8 is getting this dialog every time she opens
IE8:
"Open parent document button." I cannot locate anything in the
add-ons
which look
suspicious. Is this a part of IE8 or how can it be eliminated? As
soon
as
she arrows down one time, she is
stuck on the button and cannot read the page or access any links.
She is
using JAWS7.1. (Strangely, the JAWS cursor can read the screen but
cannot
see
the "Open parent document button" dialog on the screen. With the
virtual
cursor, she cannot move anywhere after pressing the down arrow that
first
time.
Also, she can't read any menus unless she does a manual 'say line'
command.
I realize that neither IE7 nor IE8 are fully supported by JAWS7.1,
but she got IE8 as an automatic download.
Is this dialog just a part of IE8 or can it be eliminated? BTW, she
is
able
to bring up the control-O dialog as a temporary work-around, but
cannot
access
the search edit box on her Google home page.
