Skype is a Voice Over IP service, you can make free calls to other skype users.

ALLEGEDLY, your pc acts as a node on the Skype network, so other people use your bandwidth - and even if Skype is uninstalled from your pc other people still can use your bandwidth - as told to me by an Internet Security dude.

Which is why I wont install it.

Skype is free
UNLESS
you want to call from your computer
to a phone number, then it charges you.
The free part is where you search people
you know by there last name and add them.
you can speak to them over the computer - FREE!
You can also chat.
Here's the link to get ya started:
