Hidden Fax Window
After installing XP Pro and adding a fax, my computer
slowed to a crawl while executing any application. When I tried to shut it down, I saw a dialog box closing with the title, "HiddenFaxWindow" at the top of it. I searched my computer for files and folders with that name as the search criterior and found nothing. What is this and why is it hidden? Please help...I think there is a spy in my software. |

Hidden Fax Window
"HiddenFaxWindow" is the name of the window used by fax to support system
tray notifications. Fax service posts status updates and other notifications to this window. You can disable system tray notifications by going to Printers and Faxes Fax Properties Tracking tab uncheck those that are not required. But I believe this is not the reason for slower system performance. You can look for the process that is consuming most number of CPU cycles by looking at Task Manager to find the culprit. -- Raghavendra R Microsoft Printing, Imaging and Fax Team This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.
