Bill and everyone,
That's true. I just installed WinFax Pro 10.0 on my desktop over
TalkWorks 2.0 and it went back to the TalkWorks folder. I never fax from
the ThinkPad and besides, my HD is still in data recovery at the labs. I
guess the Symantec product will default to the folder of the first product
you installed, whether TalkWorks or WinFax Pro for installation. I just
wished there was a TalkWorks 4.0. I still wonder what the difference is
in 3.0 versus 2.0 since they both use WinFax Pro 9.0.
