Forgive me for rolling out that ugly word 'Voip', but when it's part of the name of a neat product, it can't really be avoided.

Voip Phone Buddy for Skype is a new bit of software that adds automatic Skype dialling to Outlook and other Windows applications – perfect for small businesses.

The software is free for a trial period, and $19 for good (that's about a tenner). Once it's set up, you just move your cursor to a phone number and press the Hot Key to start the call – the software even formats the international dialling code automatically, and includes redial and speed dial tools.
