WinFax Pro 10 0

3 stars (Not So Bad...At Least For Me) - I have read all of the reviews on how terrible Winfax is supposed to be and I'll admit it does have its share of problems. But, what software doesn't. I have just purchased a new HP Pavilion ZD8000 Window Media Center PC and I installed WinFax 10.0 and I have not had the problems others have had. Then again, I am only an occasional WinFaxer. Perhaps my opinion will change once I get more involved and regularly use the product. That being said, the only real problem that I have is that it doesn't take advantage of my DSL connection. We have sent faxes over a DSL line successfully, so it is possible to do. We have installed the software the 1st time, so it is possible to do. We have been up and running in minutes, so that too is possible to do. I am a very seasoned computer programmer and can probably solve most software problems, but I simply have not had to fix this software. That's my two cents worth.... The great Kabudah has spoken! 1 stars (Do Not Buy This Software) - I am running Windows XP and I purchased the 10.2 pack, which, after installing, failed to work. Symantec offered no help, despite spending about three hours searching their website and calling. When I called someone finally answered the phone after endless phone menu's but gave me another number to call. Then, after many more phone menu's I was connected with another person who was barely audible and who hung up on me. Basically, there is no help from Symantec online, or by phone. (There is a charge for the phone call, but I never got that far before he hung up, thank goodness.) The program never worked and even the tech person I use for my business could not get the program running correctly. Unless you enjoy spending hours of wasted time getting no where, I would not recommend buying this product. If given the option, I would have rated this zero stars, because it does not even deserve one. I hope this review saves someone else the expense...
