We love ours and have had no issues. We also got the cell phone version that lets you talk through your radio and it is great too. Never had a concern with any asware from it, but we have Kaspersky and it never allows any through

Thanks for all the good information. For the price, I'm thinking of maybe keeping the home phone while I try Magic Jack. We use the house phone so little it's hard to justify continuing to pay for it.

We have magic Jack and it's had it's problems, one thing if you have a fax it won't work for that. We ended up getting a landline for the fax and my mls key as well. I have skype and it was working great but lately it's been having issues with fading in and out on calls.

Magic Jack is Adware! - MagicJack | DSLReports Forums
I have had Magic Jack for over a year and have not had any Adware problems. It may be because of my security settings.
