How to Erase MagicJack Files
MagicJack is a simple device that plugs into your computer and lets you make an unlimited amount of phone calls through the Internet for a small yearly fee. In order for MagicJack to work, you must install MagicJack's software which allows the computer to dial phone numbers and connect to existing phone systems. If you have changed your mind on MagicJack and would like to uninstall it from your computer, you'll find that it's more complicated than the simple \"Add/Remove Programs\" option via the Control Panel in Windows.
