I'm using Jaws 13 and not pro, just whatever Jaws for us unprofessionals is called and Office 2003 and I do exactly what Debbie suggested. I put the cursor on the t rather than the h and the link always opens.

I say that because of the message you got when you used the JAWS cursor. But I used to find that in Outlook 20003 I had to do something strange to get the link to open. If the link started with "http," I would put the pc cursor on the first "t" in the url and then press enter. The link would open as expected. Not sure if this is a solution for you, but I think it is worth a try.

When I click on the link with the Jaws cursor I bet the following message: Microsoft Office Outlook dialog This operation has been canceled due to restrictions in effect on this computer. Please contact your system administrator. OK Button I am the administrator since I am the only user. As a work around I do the following. Copy the link to the clip board Open Internet Explorer Press control+O Paste in the link and press enter The link opens but there must be a way to get things working properly. All help will be appreciated.
