Free Software to zap telemarketers

Tue, Oct 14th 2008

It's called PhoneTray and all you need is a caller-id capable modem and this free software. When you get a call from a telemarketer, you can have the software automatically play a spacial number disconnected tone. The telemarketer's computer will then AUTOMATICALLY delete your number from its database!

The program can play Federal 'do-not-call' warning forcing telemarketers to remove you from their calling lists - by law!

You can set the program to reject unwanted calls manually or automatically after selected number of rings. If you select to zap the calls manually the program pop-ups a dialog and lets you decide if you want to zap this call or not.

pcguru, you must be a telemarketer. As their website says, there are 2 differnet versions. One version is free. Being the pcguru that you are, you should easily know that.

It works very well, so well in fact, just reading the log of all the calls it blocked got me so pissed that I just decided to disconnect my landline phone.

This company has other software products and they are based in toronto. You can scan this program with any virus program and it will tell you it is safe.

I highly recommend it if you have a landline. You can block all incoming toll free numbers, and even block certian numbers. You can set it to block all calls except from a certian area code or even allow only certian phone numbers to get in.

This is NOT Free software.
This software allows you to try it out for 30 days, but is not free.

***NOTE***
Caution should be exercised with this software as the Contact info does not tell you where the company is located.

In fact the phonetray.com website was designed in Russia.

How much do you want to bet that the phonetray software was also built in Russia?

I wouldn't install ANY software originating from Russia. period.
If you're not a software designer, then you have no idea just how many hooks can be coded into software to gather information about your activities.

If you ask me, this software is worse than Telemarketers calling you.
Russia is rife with criminal activity and those with software coding abilities are at the the peak of it.

So think of the phonetray software as more Spam & Scam and grief for you.

This is a community built reverse phone directory project - get involved!

"I don't know if anyone else is using the site like this, but I use it as a personal reference. I plug in all my contacts and then I can look up their phone numbers online." - Jeremy P.
