Phone Dialer

Phone Dialer is a component of Microsoft Windows which allows the user to take phone calls by connecting a modem to the PC.

It can be launched by running  inside of the   folder in Windows. This application is notable in that its icon hasn't been updated since its initial release on Windows 95.

The original Phone Dialer was replaced in Windows 2000 by a new incarnation from ActiveVoice, though the original one was reinstated in Windows Server 2003, probably either due to licensing issues or to issues while porting the ActiveVoice Phone Dialer to 64-bit.
