What is a wardailer?

Sorry dude, make sure you make a note of it on your permanent record.
A "Wardailer" is basically a program that dials every phone number in a range with a modem looking for other modems.
If you need a good example of a wardialer in action, watch the old 80s flick "War Games" with Matthew Broadrick. At one point he uses a wardailer and finds a modem connected to a bank, and eventually the NORAD backdoor system.
So yeah... MajicJack is a good service, but apparently they frown upon setting up your computer and making a ton of phone calls on it.
