| For those users that LIKE MagicJack (count me as a satisfied one year user), I just purchased and downloaded ($12.95) a great utility called MagicBeans (MagicJackBeans.com) that enhances the functionality of the frankly, limited, MagicJack service.
I now have call blocking and have increased my number of rings from the standard 4 to 6 (can go up to infinity – but OMG, how annoying). You can set it to Do Not Disturb and can forward your calls in 3 variables: All; Busy or No Answer.
One really great feature is it will allow you to hard or soft START or REBOOT. Some of the problems that the MJ can encounter are resolved by unplugging and replugging in the unit. This is important for those of us concerned with eventual problems of USB dongle / port failures due to overuse.
There are also some other nifty features that make the MJ pop-up transparent, and it can even block the little advertisements window (woot!).
BTW, since installing I ran a full virus scan and looked at my processes and detect NO virus threats or spyware.
So far, I am LOVING it and highly recommend it to anyone that is comfortable with a bit of computer maintenance!!!!!!!! |
