Testing Firefox Beta with NVDA Preview Version

I'm currently testing Firefox Beta 3.5 nightly build with NVDA 0.6 P and it's working pretty well except for a few bugs. One of the bugs that I found with NVDA is that it sometimes puts several links on one line so you will have to navigate to the line where the link is on and use your arrow keys to put your cursor on the link you want and hit enter. Also, it has problems activating a link if there is punctuation in front of it.

Even though NVDA doesn't work very well with Internet Explorer, it's still functional. I decided to compare the speed of how fast a document loads with IE with Firefox and the result is that Firefox loads documents much faster. It only takes about a second with Firefox and 5 to 6 seconds to load one in IE.

NVDA 0.6 P Released

NVDA 0.6 Preview has just been released by the NVDA team. Since it is just a preview version, there are still many major bugs that still needs to be fixed. One notable thing in the version is the newly written virtual buffer code for firefox. If you use Firefox, the web pages will load quicker than before. Currently, the code for Internet Explorer is broken so you may not have much success using it.
