WinFax Fax Port Launcher task. This task will also show as a Delrina product, which is what WinFax used to be before it was bought by Symantec, and it will also show as a Windows XP WinFax Printer Driver because the faxing feature within Windows XP is from WinFax. This task appears only on Windows NT4/2000/XP/2003.
