Using Internet To Make Overseas Calls

Hello All

Would someone please advise as to the using of Internet to make calls home from Oman.
At the moment I use a Mobile Dialer on my Nokia and a softphone on my laptop with my Internet connection (WiFi or Wireless broadband) provided from expatcall. com and it says it works in any country.
My question is, am I allowed to use it when I come to Oman?

Thanks

Best advice?  Before you come, install something like Hot Spot Shield.  Then download and install Skype and fill up your account, with automatic recharge.  Phoning home is then free (Skype to Skype routed through the proxy) or very cheap (computer to house phone) or fairly cheap (computer to mobile in eg UK).  Without the shield, most computer to phone applications are blocked.
