Hi,

Yeah, Amazon is a pain that way.  I was having similar frustrations.  Kicking 
things didn't help.  Go into VO Utility,, press cmd-4 to go directly to the 
Navigation category, the drop-down that relates to the Mouse Pointer, set it to 
Ignores VO Cursor.  That's not the way I prefer it, but it's what you need to 
do on Amazon and a few other sites.  What's happening is that a new dialog is 
popping up on hover.  Every time that the mouse pointer is sitting on that 
spot, the hover object opens.  Changing it to Ignores fixes that.

Later...

Okay, frustrated enough to ask for help.

I use amazon.com (and this happens with m.amazon.com, also) to shop for stuff. 
I do a search for an item, find a list of suggestions.
I click on a suggestion.
I tab or use single-letter nav to jump to headings to try and find a 
description of the item.
Invariably I get sucked into a page or sub-page or window where all I can get 
are the rating percentages and a close button.
I click on the close button and the same darn stuff pops up again.

I get dragged into this swamp even if I try to navigate with VO+right/left 
arrows. Once I get stuck, I can’t get out. I feel like Brer Rabbit and the 
tar-baby in the Uncle Remus story.

Help, I’m stuck and can’t get out.
