Re: Winfax 10 will not re-install with SP3 loaded

I finally got SP3 to work and it seems fine but the tech I was
chatting with had me take out Winfax 10.02u before installing SP3.
No matter what I do I cannot get it to install and run properly now,
even after cleaning the registry and the win.ini files and running the
program from Symantec that cleans out all left overs from the Winfax
removal. There is no mention of it on the Symantec site either.

I saw no reference to this problem on the Microsoft TechNet.

Has anyone encountered this problem? It was fine before the install of
SP3

Thank you

Joe


Was finally able to get WinFax back in and working, I had to d/l a
small file from getfaxing.com that allowed me to reinstall WinFax with
IE7 on the machine. That was the trouble all along IE7 not SP3.


Thanks to all who helped!
