The FAX package by Alien is probably superior to WinFAX pro.  I had WinFAX pro
and returned it for a refund.  The software was half-baked trash, and the
customer support was a pathetic slap in the face.  I intend to purchase
the Alien Software fax package soon to replace the returned WinFAX junk.
I am using the cheap software provided with the card for the time being.

Just don't buy WinFAX!
