Summary: the worst product ever made
Comment: how a company can release a program that does not work is beyond me... it DOES NOT sync up with ACT! the way is it designed to do... I realize that ACT! changed their software, but that's no excuse... the program basically becomes worthless - why no updates? why no contact program? why no vision?

Summary: Here's how to fix the problem with Winfax and Outlook 2003
Comment: I spoke with Symantec tech support today about resolving the problem with Winfax and Outlook 2003. Basically what was happening was everytime I closed Outlook 2003, I would get an error message that Outlook needed to shut down. When I clicked on "Send this error report to Microsoft" it sent a message back to me identifying Winfax as the culprit. It had a link to Symantec's website with an article on the issue with Outlook 2003. I then contacted tech support and after several days and repeated phone calls (I kept getting transfered and promised to be called back), I spoke to someone who told me how to fix the problem. Go to Start then Control Panel. Then click on the link the Mail icon. Then delete the Winfax Logs listed in the menu. The tech rep told me that Outlook was searching for non-existent winfax logs and that's what was causing the error message. After I did this the problem was fixed and Winfax is working fine with my Windows XP sp2 and Outlook 2003. This solution may save you time and $ because they wanted to charge me $10 but after sweet talking them they waived the charge. I suggested they put this solution on their website but I think they really want you to call them and pay for help. Other than the above issue, I have used Winfax for years and found the software to be of great use to my home-based business. It does exactly as it was described to do.

Summary: This product will make you hate life
Comment: Winfax Pro has caused me more headaches than any other single piece of software. It is buggy and slow and crashes at the drop of a hat. As far as I can tell, it is essentially unmaintained by Symantec; I don't think they actually plan on fixing any of the many major bugs, and are just milking this old, old codebase for as long as suckers continue to pay good money for it. Beware!

Summary: pathetic piece of garbage
Comment: how anybody or any company can publish (in the 10th version in this
case!) such an overpriced and underperforming piece of garbage is unbelievable!
