What OS and Mac are you using?  What exactly is this fax?  Is it just
plain text?  Are you sending it with a cover sheet?

But aside from that, it sounds like there's a problem with something
(yes, all right, I know, it's obvious).

If the chooser is behaving strangely, it might be something bizarre, or
it might just be the horribly buggy GV software screwing things up.  If
I were you, I'd try zapping the PRAM with TechTool (to retain hours of
use and date of manufacture) and see if that helps.  If not...  You
might try removing any prefs to do with Apple Menu Options (just in
case), the chooser/finder/system, and Global Village.  If I were you,
I'd remove the Global Village folder from the prefs folder (don't bin it
because there might be stuff in there you want to keep), trash all the
GV extensions, control panels, and applications, re-boot, do a
re-install of the OS (no need for a clean install - just make sure all
the system files are fresh), re-install the GV software, and then see
how you get on.

If that doesn't work, try sulking.

Rowland.
