IE 11 and JAWS 16 and 17. I typically use the B key to find the various buttons. If the ad can be skipped, i'll find the skip ad button. I have also heard the paragraph about when the ad can be skipped if I use the arrow keys. Come to think of it, though, I think I've only heard this in Windows 8.1 or 10. I don't think I've come across it in Windows 7. I don't know if that helps or not. -----Original Message----- From: Jfw [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Dennis Clark via Jfw Sent: Monday, November 09, 2015 11:41 AM To: The Jaws for Windows support list.

Hello Londa, I'm understanding from your post that using IE on youtube, you hear Jaws announce a button which can be pressed to stop an advertisement from playing, as well as how long the advertisement is, and how much of it has already played. I don't hear this with IE, and several others have said they don't either. Which version of IE are you using, and also which version of Jaws? These specifics will help those of us who are trying to track down the assortment of differences in the various browsers using different versions of Jaws. Thanks for your help.
