I wasn't too big into phreaking, but I was a dialer... I mainly used it in the late 90s to find unix shells, but also hunted for any computer system that would answer with Hayes commands.

I also fired bluebeep back up in the early oughts when VOIP PBXs at corporations became a huge thing - I won't go into detail about THAT part here, but found many systems and some exploits.

When VOIP came to the masses, it was awesome to scan in areas that were unattainable prior. Might be useful today, but not on the old softwarez that we used on DOS, or even 32bit Win... does anyone know of 'current' dialers? (Even if considered legacy now-a-days...)
