Actually it is on my computer and works fairly well. I am very happy with the call quality and the price(free for now, and free pc to pc). This software has let numerous friends chat overseas with their families for free as well as them while they are overseas. The fact i didn't have problems with my firewall and the very low bandwidth used(especially the active compression on the call) makes it ideal.
I remember when DialPad first came out and it was all FREE. Then they started putting ads in when you called someone. Both parties had to listen to a 10 second ad before you could talk. Then they started charging for DialPad. I used DP alot to call friends and family in other states. I thought it was supercool to be able to make free long distance phone calls. This of course was before my unlimited mobile phone service.

High speed is dangerous. Too many MP3s, not enough time.
