I second that. It was initially developed by John Walker, the guy who
founded Autodesk, Inc. in 1982, was its president through 1986 and
chairman until 1988.
It's not the easiest / most-intuitive one to use, but I prefer it.
It has auto voice-activation (just speak over a threshold and it'll
transmit) and data encryption (many algorithms).
One can also implement his own LWL (Look-Who's-Listening) server, or
use ICQ to determine the other ends IP. Most people will probably want
to use ICQ for this purpose.
