Well, the so-called upgrade is now requiring that I install SP2 of Windows XP. What's the deal with that? I don't want SP2 on my computer ( due to incompatibities with a few other programs I have )!! MJ worked fine before and now it doesn't. Any clues to working around or tricking MJ into working without SP2 before I attempt a chat with MJ support?

I haven't even gotten my magicjack yet (ordered the other day) and I'm starting to wonder if it's going to be worth it now. Is there any way to keep it from auto upgrading?

Save the exec anywhere on your computer ( I guess ) and run it.

I never had any problems until the upgrade. I just hope that every upgrade in the future doesn't cause me problems like this one did.
