Symantec will not fix their WinFax software. It is not a Microsoft issue.
Norton Internet Security (being a part of Symantec) may or may not fix their
NIS software. Again, it is not a Microsoft issue.

Place the blame where it belongs, in this case, not with Microsoft. They do
not code it, nor do they own it, nor can they fix it. Only the vendor can,
in this case, Symantec.

| You seem to be the "Resident Expert", I have Office Biz Ed for 2 Days
| of HELL! 2 Machines worth... First found out that Winfax 10 and
| Outlook Business Contact Mgr, WILL NOT WORK together. Please have
| them fix this. Outlok 2003 I waited until 2005, figuring that after 2
| years MS would have their act together Nahhhh.
| Sending is a SOMETIMES happenstance. Dragging a standard contact to
| promote it to a Business Contact in some cases CRASHES Outlook. The
| tool bars don't stay where you put them. There is no "Style Format"
| in an HTML window to control the Paragraph style when you compose a
| message.
|
| How can anyone take Mirosoft seriously when after 5 versions of
| Outlook, it still looks like it's been coded by 12 year olds. I love
| this program, but it just wrecks any computer you put it on.
|
| All you have to do to want to commit Suicide is add Norton Internet
| Security 2005.
| Will there be a stability fix for this??
