Re: Faxing with Vista Premium

As you heard there isnt one. But I found a cool freeware fax program from US
robotics for bvrp fax...if you search their web site you should find it.

Snappy fax and RKS fax have paid programs. Lot cheaper than upgrading vista
or going back to XP

Re: Faxing with Vista Premium

Here is a great one for $19.95 and you get a free 30 day trial. I have been
using it for about a month with good results.
