At that time Fongo was named as Dell Voice and now Fongo is not sponsored by Dell so from that on-words Dell Voice users were turned to Fongo Calling, further Dell Voice desktop application was  hidden by Fongo, after that Dell Voice application cannot be downloaded from Fongo website again, moreover Free Phone Line Canada Desktop Application was also hidden. Old Dell Voice users, new Fongo users and Free Phone Line Canada users cannot access the services by Desktop/Laptop computers.

Free Phone Line Canada desktop application can be used by both old and new users. I think, to use Dell Voice desktop application Java is required.
