TITLE   : Permanently Removing Fax Support
PRODUCT : PROCOMM PLUS for Windows 2.xx
==============================================================================

This document describes the procedure necessary to permanently remove fax
support from PROCOMM PLUS for Windows version 2.x.  This procedure can only be
reversed by completely re-installing PROCOMM PLUS for Windows 2.x.

WHY WOULD I WANT TO DISABLE FAX SUPPORT?
For the vast majority of users, the fax support in PROCOMM PLUS for Windows
2.x will be transparent and will not interfere with any other tasks you may
perform under Windows.

Some people purchase PROCOMM PLUS specifically for its data capabilities and
have no use for its fax capabilities.  Although the fax support takes up very
little of your hard drive space, some of these people may want to remove the
fax support in order to free up this space.

Should you have a reason to permanently remove the fax support in PROCOMM
PLUS, the steps below will guide you through the process.  Please note that
the steps described below will permanently disable the ability to send or
receive any faxes.  The only way to restore fax support is to completely
re-install PROCOMM PLUS to regenerate the necessary files and settings.

PROCEDURE TO PERMANENTLY REMOVE FAX SUPPORT
The following procedure applies to all versions of PROCOMM PLUS for Windows
2.x:

1. Exit PROCOMM PLUS for Windows and close FAXSTAT.EXE, if these programs
   are currently running.

2. Remove the virtual device driver (DSTASK.386) that was added to your
   Windows configuration when you installed PROCOMM PLUS for Windows by
   following these steps:

   a) Start the Windows Notepad text editor or any other text editor you like
      to use.

   b) Open the SYSTEM.INI file located in the main Windows directory (usually
      called C:\WINDOWS).

   c) Scroll through the SYSTEM.INI file until you find the section labeled
      [386 Enh].

   d) Search the [386 Enh] section for the "device=dstask.386" statement and
      delete it.

   e) Save the SYSTEM.INI file and exit the text editor.

3. Use the Windows File Manager to delete the following files from the
   main PROCOMM PLUS for Windows directory (usually C:\PROWIN2):

     FAXSTAT.EXE

     FAXVIEW.EXE

     PWCVRED.EXE

4. Use the Windows File Manager to delete the following subdirectories, and
   every file residing in the subdirectories, from the main PROCOMM PLUS for
   Windows directory (usually C:\PROWIN2):

    \FAXCOVER

    \FAXRECV

    \FAXSEND

5. Use Windows File Manager to delete the following files from the Windows
   System directory (usually C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM):

   PWFAX.DRV
