Hi Mich,
I don't think that Web page not found issue is an IE problem. I seem to be
having a lot of that trouble here on a two year old Vista machine with Jaws
9 and IE but I don't seem to be having the same trouble with a much older XP
machine at work, mind you I don't do anything like as much browsing at work.
This seems to be recent, a couple of months recent and I am also finding
that Jaws seems to lock up and I have to just push the power button to kill
and restart the computer. This is almost exclusively while on the Web. I
also get a lot of those failure messages and when I close the tab IE reports
there was an error on the page and the tab is recovered. Sometimes this
recovery fails and we go around again maybe several times. I have an
impression it is something to do with how Java Script is being handled but I
don't really have much proof for it. Jaws may have something to do with it
too because sometimes I get an Unknown script to say line or next line or
what ever as I try to manipulate the arrow keys to figure out what might be
on the screen.
What I am saying is that the upgrades may be of value but they may not solve
those problems you are having.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] question about upgrading IE and jaws.
Hi all. I am running IE 6 and jaws 7.0 on a windows xp home pc. I have the
following questions. I know that IE 6 is no longer being supported by
sights like youtube and a lot of others. I have found that when I go to a
lot of web pages it says can't find server etc. My question then is this.
If I wanted to upgrade IE Witch version should I upgrade to and would this
mien that I would have to upgrade my jaws as well? I think it would but I
am just not sure. and right now I don't have 3 or 400 dollars to fork over
to fs for the upgrade. Right now IE 6 and jaws 7 are working fine for me,
and you know the old saying if it isn't broke then don't fix it. but it
was just a question that I had so I figured that I would ask it hear. many
thanks. from Mich.
