if you enable active desktop you can do it with flash embedded in html.

I went and downloaded the demo of the app and yes it is what i need, i then created a test paper and followed the directory structure -\> c:\windows\web\wallpaper and then modified the javascript in the html file with dreamweaver uninstalled the installer and got it to work without showing demo and installing using a .zip.exe.
Thank you
wow thanks for the skype link it could come in very handy, need to see if it will work in South Africa though, since we only have one phone company and they have a monopoly over all phonecalls and internet connections.

VoIP is purely over the internet- it should work anywhere, its usually free internet-to-internet but to get it to talk to real phones requires a subscription, usually.
