Actually, build 2169U should also work with IE 8 from my best recollection.

If you are stuck with say build 2169 an one grab the scripts from build
2191U and copy the specific IE scripts from the all users folder into
the 2169 all users folder. Will this fix the issues

I hate to keep sounding like a broken record, but IE 8 works just fine
with JAWS 9. The key is that you must have the latest build of JAW 9
which is 2191U. IE 8 will not work with earlier builds of JAWS 9.
Maybe the folks who claim that IE 8 doesn't work with JAWS 9 did not
have the latest build installed. The only JAWS feature that does not
work is read Address Bar (JAWS key-A), which is really no big deal. I
have been using JAWS 9 with IE
8 every day for over two years and have yet to encounter any serious
compatibility issues.

Hi Dwight,
Jaws 9 does not support I.E. 8. although some claim to have them
working
fine together, I had a lot of trouble with the combination, so much so
I
had to roll back to I.E. 7. I'm afraid that's your only option,
besides
upgrading Jaws, of course.

Hi Dwight:
To make the menu bar appear in Internet Explorer (IE8, do the
following:
1. Open IE.
2. Press Alt+V to get to the View menu.
3. Press T to get to the Tool Bars sub-menu.
4. Press Enter on Menu Bar to check this option. You should now be
able
to
arrow through the menus.

Greetings:
I am using Jaws 9 and windows xp. A few days ago I went from IE 7 to
IE
8.
Now when I go to the menu bar Jaws will read the headings such as
file,
edit, view and so forth. When I press down arrow to enter one of
those
items Jaws says context menu and then goes silent and will not speak
again
until I press escape to return to the bar.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks,
Dwight Johnson
