I don't know about running the win32 version of lynx, if
that's what you're doing.
I have a UNIX account I dial into using Procomm Plus and
vt220 terminal emulation.  I build my own version of lynx
in my home directory as my ISP uses an old version of lynx.
I don't use Jaws myself, though, so i don't have any pointers
for setting it up.

Probably a better place to ask for help about screen readers and access
is the basr-l (blind access and screen readers) list.  To subscribe, send
mail to address@hidden with the line

Good luck.
