I guess I wonder why you want to do this.

Hi Dan;

You are definitely correct.  I thought unchecking 1 of those boxes on
the 
Links page would do it but, I was wrong.  I even played in verboscity 
settings & couldn't stop Jaws from saying " link ".  I have never tried 
Flor's suggestion but, it sounds like you have & it wouldn't work
either. 
Hopefully someone will have an answer for you.  Take care.
Mike

  Mike and Flor,

  OK, let's go back over this.  I am using JAWS 11 with XP and IE 8.  I
was
  the person who first mentioned configuration manager, html options,
links.
  As far as I can tell, none of those options stop JAWS from saying the
word
  "link" when you arrow over a link on a web page.  There is a control
that
  says, "Say link type".  From my investigation, this does not stop JAWS
  from saying link, or visited link, but does stop it from saying
"mailto
  link" just saying link instead.

  Flor, I did look at the links list, and I see no option that pertains
to
  the vocalization of the word "link" when moving over links on a web
page.
  I see that you can choose what types of links, visited, not visited,
all,
  that appear in the list, I see radio buttons for how you can order the
  links in the list.  I see controls for moving to the link.  I do not
see
  any controls for saying or not saying "link".

  Possibly I am being too hasty and not investigating closely enough,
but
  I've been through both of those dialogues and have experimented with
  several controls, but have not found a way to get JAWS to stop saying
  "link" while arrowing around a web page.
