Auxwork,

Let me look into it. Is it all games or specific games?

This program blocks magicjack, but it still loses focus from what you are doing. I play world of warcraft and whenever the magicjack popup needs to come up, it still needs to minimize my window and loses focus from what I currently do. Is there any fix for this?

It's all games...

Not hard to test this. Just try any game you want... then pick up your phone and turn it on you'll see your game go to the desktop soon after.

Worthless for me. I use to use the DO NOT DISTURB but they took that function out, Now I just shut down MJ all together when I play a game.

I too am having trouble with interaction of computer function. When I make a call my secretary gets her typing interrupted. I stopped the pop-up window with Magic block, but still the interruption in typing. Anyone have suggestions?

If I hardwired to a separate computer would that stop it? Even if I come from the same router?

Well been reading for a while seen this though i do not mind the soft pfone thought i would give it a try is there a way to turn off this software without unpluging and plugging the magic jack. so i can use it when needed . other than that your magic jack manger is great piece of work.

Thanks for this. Real quick though - does this prevent the magicjack icon from appearing on the desktop as well? Everytime I delete it, it comes right back. Real pain!

Hi

My magicjack was working fine till yesterday. Nothing has been changed except I hv added another harddisk. Everything is working fine except my Magicjack is not getting started.

I tried clicking the icon, changing USB ports and tried magicfix (though its not useful as the MJ is not at all getting started)

Please help me

It may be a drive letter conflict. Try this:

-power down
-unplug MJ
-power up and allow boot to complete
-plug MJ back in

If that doesn't work, then search the MJ website FAQ for "uninstall" to download and run the MJ uninstall utility (with your MJ unplugged). Afterwards, reboot, and plug the MJ back in.

I forgot to mention, if the hd you added connects via usb, you should disconnect it and see if MJ loads. If so, you will need a powered usb hub.

MagicBlock stopped working about two weeks ago (dialtone won't go away unless I disable MagicMlock), so I've decided to run MJ as a service. There used to be a list of instructions posted to this site, but now someone developed a little app that does all the work for you.

The benefits are that as a service you do not need to be logged in as a specific user to use MJ and the opo-up will no longer bother you. We have five shared accounts on the PC and my kids no longer need to have
The downside is that the Softphone is no longer avaiailable in the system tray. As we don't use the soft phone at all, this is a great solution.

Took me about 45 seconds to install and works great.

Enjoy!
