I am pretty sure that I have a fax capable modem but I have no idea what software I need to use to enable the fax receive function for my modem. I want to get IRS information and they can send it by fax to your computer of fax machine.
What should I do?
Thanks,

There are a bunch of ways.

1. Use a free fax service on the Net.
2. Use the faxing software that comes with Win95 and Win98 (but not Win98se or WinMe or Win2k AFAIK). It's not installed by default so you need to find it on the Windows CDROM. It's in there somewhere, but I can't remember the name. It's an installable option on Win95, but on Win98, you need to actually go look for it.
3. Buy a fax program for your computer. WinFax is the one that my wife and I use.
