Hmm. The only software I can think of off the top of my head is Pagoo. I don't know the exact website you can find it on, perhaps www.pagoo.com but you can search the net for it. It works alright, a couple bugs, I think you need to pay for it though.

The best one I've ever seen was Microsoft Phone. But they quit supporting that, and it doesn't work on Win NT/2000. It was really nice because it basically added answering machine capabilities to Outlook. All of your messages were stored like emails. Very cool.

There is also Symantec's TalkWorks Pro 3.0. This is ok, but I wish someone would come out with another one that integrated into Outlook.

Sorry bout not being 100% clear.......i dont mean Internet Answering Software, i mean, instead of having an Answering Machine, i want to turn on software on my PC and have that answer and record messages.

Thanks anyway though, i appreciate the help.

Pugzly= is there anywhere I can still d/l Microsoft Phone?

Good luck! Microsoft dropped the ball on that one. For the longest time, you could only get it by purchasing one of the supported modems. It came bundled with those. I managed to get a copy at a computer show. I loved that software. Always broke my heart that they didn't keep up on it. I've yet to see anything that stored voice mail messages in Outlook.

It also came bundled with Microsoft Voice, which was MS's attempt at doing voice interaction with the computer. That was pretty cool. I'd walk into my computer room and say "Email", and the computer would start the email program. Cool!

what about a tellie phone for the pc?

Long long time ago... ZyXel modems little program came with those.. put a .wav file on your harddisk. bad sound quality but id did work. But i think you are looking in the wrong direction. I know some of the sounblaster cards an the sonic-furry soundcard have an TAD (Telephone Answering Device) conector on them. Maybe those people know anything about it.

good luck searching.....
