The following issues are known to exist in the current version of VoiceMessenger Force.
!
VoiceMessenger Force does not work across most firewalls or address translated networks.
!
On Windows NT
®
/95/98 desktop machines, if VoiceMessenger Force is used along with
other applications that vie for the sound card (MP3 players, etc.), the application becomes
unstable. Specifically, toggling the communication mode from full duplex to half duplex
repeatedly causes the application to become unstable. This behavior is not observed on
Windows 2000 desktop machines.
!
When the MSN Messenger service closes the server session upon idle timeout
(approximately in 6 minutes), the application fails to establish any other voice conversation
after this event. The only workaround is to sign-out and sign in again.
