Thats it!!  Thats exactly the kind of thing I was looking for.

   "wxDialer is a simple and easy to use dialer program, roughly based
    on the win9x program 'dialer.exe' - all it does is allow you to
    make and receive calls on your modem. A microphone is required,
    and it is suggested that you also have headphones instead of using
    your speakers to prevent any nasty feedback."

I'll check it out this weekend.  If anyone sees any other program around
I can use to compare, don't hesitate to post it too.
