Software update:
Year 2000 Readiness: While GlobalFax can function in and past the Year 2000 without using this Updater, the GlobalFax Scheduling Updater updates a very specific function of GlobalFax: the "Send At" feature. Using the GlobalFax Scheduling Updater will allow the Send At feature to function properly after December 31, 1999. GlobalFax's appearance and features will not change with the exception of the Send At feature.

Installing the GlobalFax Scheduling Updater:

1. Double-click on the file named "GlobalFax Scheduling Update.sea" which should then expand (decompress) and create a folder called "GlobalFax Scheduling Update."
2. Open the "GlobalFax Scheduling Update" folder.
3. Double-click on the GlobalFax Scheduling Updater icon and it will update your current version of GlobalFax. An unmodified copy of the updated software is saved in a folder named "Old Global Village Software" on your hard drive.

NOTE: You should not run this Updater on software for any modem not listed above. If you do run the GlobalFax Scheduling Updater on software for a modem not listed above, the Updater will either:

* not modify your GlobalFax software

OR

* incorrectly modify your software which may cause problems when you use your GlobalFax software. If you encounter problems using the GlobalFax software after running the Updater, you should do the following:

1. Open the "Old Global Village Software" folder on your hard drive
2. Change the name of the extension "Unmodified GlobalFax" to "GlobalFax"
3. Drag the "GlobalFax" extension onto the closed System Folder icon of your hard drive
4. A dialog telling you that the item needs to be placed in the Extensions folder will appear - click the OK button
