Can anyone recommend cheap or free software that would allow me to send and receive faxes via my PC over an internet connection?
Thanks

Its not software you need but a email to fax/fax to email provider. Not the cheapest, but I have been using for years https://www.j2.com.Don't lie, thieve, cheat or steal. The Government do not like the competition.

I can send and receive faxes without any software etc., but I suppose that's because I am using XP and still have a dial-up modem.
Mind you, although sending faxes is straightforward, I think it's only practical for receiving occasional faxes by arrangement, as I have to be there to "accept" the fax rather than picking the phone up.".....where it is corrupt, purge it....."0 -

I did use fax with XP a few times, not too difficult to set up, yes I do remember having to put down the phone to receive a fax, but not to inconvenient for the occasional fax.

There is a Fax and Scan in Windows 7, but I've not got around to exploring it .Move along, nothing to see.0 -
I use the faxing program with Windows 7 for sending faxes (using old dial-up modem) and have a fax to email incoming number, this is a local number that I set up with my VoIP provider (VoIP Talk), which at the time offered the local incoming number for free, however now it's £2.99 a month for new customers, they do however offer other numbers, there are other fax to email services out there too.It's PAC not PAC Code, it's MAC not MAC Code, it's PIN not PIN Number, it's ATM not ATM Machine, it's LCD not LCD Display, it's DVD not DVD disc... It's no one not noone, It's a lot not alot, It's got not gotten... Panini is the plural of panino - there is no S!!(OK my English isn't great, the sciences, maths & IT are my strong points!)0
