I can't tell you if a string addition is possible, but that phrasing is 
pretty awkward in English (and "account" is spelled incorrectly in one 
place). I would suggest this instead:


"If you do not have a SIP or H323 account, ekiga can only be used on 
your local internal network (inside your company, for example). You will 
require an account if you want to be accessible to people on the 
Internet. Many web sites allow you to create an account. We suggest
that you use a free ekiga.net account, which allows you to be joined by
any person with a SIP account. If you want to call regular phone lines 
too, we suggest that you purchase an inexpensive diamond.us SIP account.

The following two pages allow you to create such accounts."


I hope this is helpful!
