Other Technical Notes

System Startup
If you do not want Messenger to start up every time your computer starts up, go to the Start menu > Programs > Startup menu. Right click on the eFax Tray Icon and click delete.

Note: Do not remove the eFax DllCmd 4.0. If this file is removed from your startup menu, you will not be able to fax documents from other Applications.

File Associations
The only file types that will automatically open in Messenger are J2's very own .EFX and .JFX file formats. If you would like any other file types to automatically open in Messenger, such as TIF or JPEG, you must change your File Associations through Windows. See Microsoft Windows help section for more information.
