Abstract
A computer-telephony call which includes encoded voice communication from a calling party to a called party who has a computer capable of receiving the call, within a communication network having a services platform, can be screened by the called party. The call is received at the services platform, within the communications network, where a communication from the calling party is recorded. The communication of the call is routed to the computer of the called party so that the called party can perceive the communication of the call as the communication is being recorded at the services platform.
