Vincent,
The SYMANTEC website is still calling TalkWorks 3.0 a new program. There is
no indication there that a W2K version is forthcoming or even planned. I
wonder why not? I had TalkWorks Pro 2.0, as well, but never really used the
voice stuff. When I installed WinFax 10.0 it defaulted into the old
TalkWorks folder.

I actually have TalkWorks Pro 2.0. 3.0 came out like 2 weeks
after I bought 2.0. 2.0 has WinFax Pro 9.0 as well. Maybe TalkWorks Pro
4.0 will be available really soon. I noticed that TalkWorks is installed
in the WinFax Pro folder and not in it's own folder.

I don't think it does since I remember someone saying it
didn't. I just have a 3Com Combo 10/100 NIC + 56k modem card so it'll
work. Unfortunately, for my desktop, my USR COurier v.everything dual
standard external modem doesn't have voice capabilities.
