>From the ie7 release notes:

When using Freedom Scientific JAWS® for Windows screen reader with
Internet Explorer 7, you might encounter the following issues: 

• JAWS 7 does not display the contents of individual frames when a page
contains a frame set. To work around this problem, copy psapi.dll from the
\WINDOWS\system32
directory to the directory where JAWS is installed. 

• JAWS 6 and later reads incorrect information for Select Control with Say
Line and Say Control Hot Keys because of the new Internet Explorer 7 Select
Control.
For more information on an update to Select Control, contact Freedom
Scientific. 

• CTRL+F opens the Internet Explorer Find dialog box rather than the JAWS
Find dialog box. To work around this, use INSERT+CRTL+F. This was fixed in
JAWS
7.1. 

• INSERT+A does not move the JAWS cursor to the Address bar. To work around
this, use ALT+D to set focus on the Address bar.
