About

Haxial NetFone is an encrypted multi-user Internet telephone. ie it lets you talk (literally, without typing), to 1 or more people over the Internet. You can talk to multiple people at the same time, and your security and privacy is protected by encryption. Unfortunately, internet telephones are not as simple and easy to use as real physical telephones. However, internet telephones offer some other compelling advantages: * You can make long distance or international calls for free. You only pay for your normal internet access, and then any calls you make with NetFone are free, even if you talk to someone on the other side of the world for 10 hours. You can save a lot of money this way. * You can have multi-way conversations with NetFone, also known as "Conference Calls". In other words, you can talk to multiple people at once and have a group discussion, instead of only one-to-one. * NetFone encrypts your conversations for security and privacy. People will not be able to eavesdrop on your conversations (provided you choose good passwords). * You can use NetFone during an internet game, which would be impractical with a normal telephone. * NetFone gives you lots of options to tweak the performance of the call. While this can be seen as a disadvantage (complications), it is also advantageous because it allows you to squeeze the best performance out of your internet connection. Note that Haxial NetFone talks only with other copies of Haxial NetFone -- ie it does not call a real physical telephone. NetFone is cross-platform, meaning that the Mac version can speak to the MS Windows version, or vice-versa. Haxial NetFone is available for: MacOS 9 or better (with CarbonLib 1.3.1+). MacOS X (10). Windows 95 or better. The Product Page is here:
