HI Fred,

Launch Internet Explorer and press Alt+H for Help then press letter A for 
about. Use your jaws cursor to determine the version of Internet Explorer 
you are currently using.

Please convey this information as it would narrow down the possibilities; 
the less possibilities the faster you can implement the best solution. 
<Smile>. For example, if you are running Internet Explorer 10 then you will 
end up with Internet Explorer 9, or you will end up with Internet Explorer 
8, which mean you can then install Internet Explorer 9. It begins to get 
confusing which is why I'm suggesting we first figure out for absolute 
certainty which version of Internet Explorer you are using.

If you cannot wait for additional feedback from the list, you can download 
Internet Explorer 9 from Microsoft:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/internet-explorer-9-details.aspx

I suggest you really, really consider why you feel you need Internet 
Explorer 9 over Internet Explorer 8. I have found that downloading files is 
significantly easier and faster using Internet Explorer 8. Internet Explorer 
10 is almost identical to IE9, so you would not really notice much of a 
performance increase moving from 9 to 10 or from 10 to 9. I personally don't 
like the extra security steps necessary to download a file when using 
Internet Explorer 9 and Internet Explorer 10, but I'm here to answer your 
question, not mine. <Smile>.

Worst case scenario, we can always uninstall Internet Explorer 9 or Internet 
Explorer 10 and go right back to Internet Explorer 8. Rather than to waste 
that kind of time, why not first determine the pros and cons of your current 
decision to move to Internet Explorer 9. <Smile>.

Joseph

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Problems installing IE9


I am using W7, Latest jaws and IE8 browser and trying to install IE9 from
windows updates.  I have tried to install IE9 many times from the windows
updates but it always locks up my computer.  It seems to try installing IE9
and IE10 at the same time and locks up my computer everytime. Does anyone
have a direct download for IE9 that you could pass on to me?  I would
appreciate it very much.  I looked over the jaws-users home site but
couldn't find anything there.  Thanks much,
