At home I use Outlook 2002 SP3 under Windows XP Professional SP2 on a Dell

another provider's (NTL) phone socket (doubled with a phone instrument) and a
USB port on the PC, but when I tell Outlook to dial a contact it says "Call
cannot be completed as dialled". Clicking Line Properties gives "An Internal
