Good Voice-Chat software for FPS Games?

Hi, I didn't know if this belongs in this forum or the pc forum, but hopefully someone can help me out here.

I recently got a new pc and have gotten into some FPS, Natural Selection specifically. I've played a couple of times and see that players can talk to each other in the game. I was wondering if anyone could recommend a good chat program and a decent microphone, so I could talk with the other players. I would prefer it not be super expensive, but a decent amount of quality would be great.

Thanks for all the help.

Two popular ones are Roger Wilco and Team Speak. Team Speak is generally regarded as the better product.

Bear in mind that all of this is moot if you don't have the same software as your teammates and if you don't know what channel they're chatting on.

Looks like UT2004 will be shipping with built-in voice chat, which simplies that whole thing quite a bit.

I've been using Roger Wilco for around 6 months and have no problem with it, it was free and I used the Socom headset so it cost me nothing. I don't know how good it works with a lot of people though, I generally just go on with one friend at a time.
