Caller ID on PC is a feature that combines Caller ID with AOL Instant Messenger® by sending an instant message to your computer, showing the caller’s information.
By using Caller ID on PC, you can have Caller ID information display right on your computer screen so you don’t have to go to the phone to find out who is calling. You can also use Caller ID on PC to see who is calling when you are away from your Digital Home Phone. For example, you could see calls to your home number while you are at the office.
