    Can anyone recommend a good answerphone and fax software system for a p/c running XP and Office 2000.
    I used to have a system called Megaphone which worked well until I installed Office 2000. Then it was in conflict with Outlook 2000 although it worked ok with Outlook 97?
    I know that Outlook has it's own Fax software but I want one that will answer the phone when I am out and take a voice or fax message and maybe keep a log of calls in and out.
    There are plenty of downloads available but I would rather try one on recommendation that I know will work without creating conflicts with my existing software.
    Quiz.

    I have not used this on XP but have it on my 2000 system with MS Office. The program is called Hot Fax Message Center 4.0. Now they are on version 6. I did a search and found a place that is selling version 4.0. http://www.clickcooldeals.com/show_detail.php?item_id=33 for $8.95 If you would like to see the latest version you can check out http://www.smithmicro.com/default.tpl?sku=HMCWA0SESMS1250&group=product_full Also used COMMUNICATE which can be found at http://www.imintouch.net/products.asp?navid=0 Communicate has a lot more features than Hot Fax Message Centers and is more for a business.

    Thanks Russ

    I tried the link and found the hotfax 4 that you are using but they do not ship to England.
    I can only find version 6 available to buy and that is £50.

    I was looking for a free program that I could maybe upgrade later.

    If anyone reading this has a copy of HOTFAX version 4 and would not mind sending me the program by E-mail to try out, that would be nice and I would be Grateful.
