hi donald, i don't know. btw, isn't jfax something that ie browsers install? as a thought, someone once suggested to me (when i was having difficulty uninstalling a program) that i reinstall it and try uninstalling again. other than that, from your post i gather that you've looked for either jfax or jcomm using file manager and there is no trace, correct? i believe that if you had an uninstaller like clean sweep, it would find the file. but then again, your problem sounds like it isn't a missing file, but something searching for it. hopefully richard can help you, donald. i'd vote for putting it back on your hard drive, then removing it again. shrug. good luck! mark

J Fax stuff... As a last resort only ... Peek in the registry. Start \| Run \| Regedit Click on Edit and select find. Look for your J Fax stuff and see if appears there. If so, you can click on it and delete. Better make a backup first. System Tools \| Information \| Tools \| Registry checker gives you the option of doing a registry backup. Hope this points the right direction. PW.

JFAX Stuff ... (Continued!) Thinking further: Once you clean up the mess in your registry and .INI files, you may not be quite done yet. You may need to do the same work twice. If one is writing to the other, the problem will turn out like a stray cat that's been offered food: It'll return again and again. Get rid of the stuff; reboot; Get rid of the stuff again, perhaps in a different order; reboot; check to make sure the stuff is really gone. The paranoid will reboot and check a third time just to make sure. The confident will assume all is well at this point. Anyway, once you've done the 'housecleaning' twice, you'll not be intimidated by the third, although probably annoyed. Hope this helps, PW.
