On the contrary, thank you.  Sorry to be such  nuisance but I haven't been 
able to get my children to try contacting me because of the pressures of work 
and family.

To save them some time, I downloaded MyPhone and tried to set it up.  
Unfortunately, there's no, absolutely no documentation to go with the 
program.  After much trial and error, I was able to establish a loopback 
connection to 127.0.0.1 so that I know that placing a call to an IP address 
will work.  However, neeither my sons nor I have permanent IP addresses and 
MyPhone does not seem to use an ils server as far as I can tell.  So just how 
is one supposed to set up a connection from MyPhone to GM?  Conversely, is it 
possible to set up a connection in the reverse direction i.e. from GM to MP?

Thanks in advance, Allan.
