1. Product Description
-----------------------
Identify callers before you answer. With IDentify! and a Caller ID capable modem, you can have a Caller ID box built right into your computer, but with many features that regular Caller ID boxes don't have.

A pop-up window lets you know who is calling. Announce the caller's name using speech synthesis. A flashing icon in the system tray lets you know that calls were logged while you were away from the computer. Automatically hang up on unwanted callers. With Pager and E-mail Notification you can be automatically notified when someone calls your home or office. See the help file for a complete list of features. IDentify! is TAPI compliant and can share your modem with other TAPI programs.

-----------------------
2. System Requirements
-----------------------
- 486/33 or higher to use text-to-speech option
- Microsoft(r) Windows(r) 95/98 or 2000
- 5 MB (minimum) of free disk space
- A TAPI compliant modem with Caller ID functionality
- Caller ID service from your phone company
- Microsoft(r) Unimodem V universal modem driver
- TAPI 2.1 or higher

The Unimodem requirement is only a concern if you are using an early version of Windows 95. If so, an update is available. Windows 95 users will need to install the TAPI 2.1 update. Both of these updates are available at http://www.imptec.com/support.htm.

IDentify! will not work under Windows NT. The version of Unimodem provided with NT does not support Caller ID.

3. Installation
----------------
If you are updating a previous version of IDentify!, do not uninstall the old version. This would remove the configuration settings. Simply install this new version over the old one. Be sure the old version is not running when installing the new one, or you will need to restart Windows to finish the installation.

First, extract the files to a temporary directory. You can delete this directory when setup has completed. Run Setup.exe and follow the instructions. Use one of these methods to run Setup.exe:

- Select Run from the Taskbar Start menu, type the full path
  of the temporary directory followed by a backslash and the
  name of the installation program (e.g., C:\TEMP\SETUP.EXE).
  Press the ENTER key.
- Use My Computer or the Explorer to find the Setup.exe file.
  Double-click the icon to run it.

To uninstall IDentify! simply double-click "Add/Remove programs" in the control panel, select IDentify! in the list, and click the "Add/Remove" button. After uninstalling you will need to manually remove the IDentify! directory and any files left in it since the uninstall does not remove any data files or temporary files that were created.

4. Troubleshooting
