Mine did the same thing and I disabled the firewall for 30 minutes. Then I registered etc and the firewall turned it self back on after 30 min and I have not had a problem since.

I am using Nero too and I have no problem. I was prepared to uninstall it if I had to cause I heard about problems with the compatibility, but it works just fine with Nero installed. I didn't try to burn anything yet either, but if it would be a problem then I just unplug MJ for 5 minutes and burn ...

Yeah I got charged too. It was pending yesterday but I saw that the amount went through now so no 30 Day Free Trial for me. But it looks like I am gonna keep it anyway so it doesn't matter if I pay it now or in 30 Days. But its still wrong to offer a 30 Day Free Trial and then charge people right ...

I just tested the bandwidth used by my Magicjack and it was about 80-90 Kbps in and out. Based on your speedtest numbers, you have more than enough speed. However, with any connection speed, you can still have an impact on call quality depending on what you are doing with the rest of your bandwidth ...

The only adware that I am aware of is the software itself, which is in the dangle. I've done spyware and adware searches on my computer and never found anything. Furthermore, the only ads that pop up are in the little window on the soft phone, which means you never have to see them if you don't ...

I agree. UPS is great. This is what MJ should be using. At least you know where your package is at all times. USPS has been saying the same thing since the 15th and that is that it left Palm Beach FL. I have no clue where it is now, but it didn't come in the mail today. Hopefully on Monday. And YES ...

Whats the deal with the ad-ware on MJ?

The MJ is advertised as no software is installed on your computer because it runs of the MJ. But I read about a lot of people complaining (in an other Forum) about MJ putting all kinds of Spam on your PC. So which one is it now? Does it install on the PC with Ad-ware or does the program run of the MJ?

Yep does the same here and I also got another $1 charge pending from them I guess that was kind of to see if my card was legit when I ordered it 2 days ago. I used to work at a call center for a credit card company and people would always complaint about their card being denied, come to find out ...

Ok I was not sure where to stick this question so I stuck it here! First of all let me say Kudos to whoever started this Forum! I read so many horror stories about the MJ after I ordered it but now I am not so worried anymore because I know I can get help here. Anyhow I have not received it yet but ...
