Symantec Winfax Compatibility

Hi.

Has anyone tested Symantec Winfax Pro Version 10.3 on Vista? Does it work?

Re: Symantec Winfax Compatibility

That is a question you should direct to Symantec.

No, but please let us know what the results of your test is. :-)

Re: Symantec Winfax Compatibility

Even if Symantec says it works, I still want feedback from real world users.
So please excuse me.

Re: Symantec Winfax Compatibility

It's flaky under XP, so I would not hold my breath.

Normal for all Symantec Crapware products.

Re: Symantec Winfax Compatibility

I agree. The thing could barely be made to work with Windows XP. I wouldn't
hold much hope for Vista.

Lets be fair. Symantec buy good products/market leaders and turn them
into abandonware! I don't know why they bother.

Cheers,

I've wondered that myself.

Once upon a time there was....

Peter Norton Computing (Norton Utilities, Norton AntiVirus)
Central Point Software (PC Tools)
Quarterdeck (CleanSweep)
Delrina (WinFax)
Binary Research (Ghost)
DataStorm (Procomm Plus)
Dynamic Microprocessor Associates. (PCAnywhere)
Veritas (Backup Exec)
(The Original) SecurityFocus.com
PwerQuest. (PartitionMagic, DriveMagic)
Sygate Technologies Sygate Firewall (including a FREE consumer
version, that vanished along with the Sygate name.).......
Just to name a few....

Come to think of it, WTF HAS Symantec given us from day one?

Wow, I forgot some of those. Thanks for the trip down memory lane <g>
and shame on you Symantec.
