Hi Trish,

Below are 3 other ways to copy a link;

#1;

1. Find the direct download link you want and press enter to open the link.
2. Tab to cancel the download and press space bar or enter.
3. Go back to this link by arrowing either up or down once or twice and go 
back to the link and make sure it says "visited".
4. Press the context applications key  and arrow to copy shortcut and press 
enter.  This copies the direct download link for a program to the clipboard.
5. Paste this direct download link into an e-mail and send it to someone and 
when they press enter on this particular link they will go directly to the
download for the program.


#2;
While on the download link, I right click the mouse on the numPad key and 
enter on properties. In there is the URL for a direct download.

#3;
here's the way you can do the direct link download,

1, find the download link you wish to send to someone,

2, now press insert+f7, this brings up your links, and, you should hear, 
your download link being read,

3, make sure your on the link, and press, alt+m, now, press applications 
key, and down arrow and enter on, copy shortcut.

Hope these help.  Take care.
Mike
P.S. With the steps Steve posted, you need to add the Insert / Jaws key to 
the F7 & Alt + W, keystrokes.

  That copies the page address you are on, however, it doesn't copy the link
  you might be pointing to.  To do that:

  1.  Point to the link you want.

  2.  Bring up the links list (Jaws-f7).

  3.  You can press the status line command (Jaws-pageDown) to have the 
actual
  address of that link spoken.

  4.  To copy that address, virtualize the screen (Jaws-alt-w).

  5.  Go down to the bottom line and highlight the url address using the 
usual
  windows highlight command and copy it to the clipboard.

  6.  Now, you can paste that link wherever you want it.

  Take my advice, I don't use it anyway.
