Hi Jackie,

I have IE7 here and have never had trouble downloading books from Bookshare, 
even though I haven't added it to my trusted sites. I know it has more 
stringent security settings, but I haven't played with the defaults and I 
don't have any trouble. So I figured that if she reset to the defaults, it 
might work for her.

Evan
