What do you have for a BT dongle? The Linksys BT101 seems to have an issue with XP and 2k where if the headset comes and goes, you have about a 50% chance of having your transmitted audio "scrambled". (the other side describes it as a full-volume constant screaming into the headset noise. Not pleasant.) I've used the Motorola HS810, 850 and the Treo-branded headset and they all do this, so that is why I'm suspecting it's the dongle. The only way to clear it is to pull the dongle out and put it back in, and you have normal transmitted audio again. It's using the Linksys-provided BT stack, not the XP-provided one (the XP one doesn't seem to work with the dongle). > I just downloaded and am testing the IdeFiskIAX softphone, seems pretty > good also, nicer GUI then DIAX!
