I dunno, but remember - Magic Jack requires a dongle to run.
Specifically, it requires *a whole gd computer*. Cynics would simply

Besides, who wants to leave their computer on all the time just so
their phone will work?

If you've got MJ, can you tell the OP how to disable the incoming call popup?
