Caller ID BLOCK Who is it???

I heard about a program that identifies who is calling you with the caller id block "Private Call", it says the number of the person that is calling you "Private" does this exist, and does exist for de HTC PRO?

Thanks!

It's not as if it is a matter of decryption. The block of the number does not originate with a phone, so there would be no way of identifying a restricted number from the recipient's phone because that data is simply not transmitted to your handset.

Im pretty sure it has to be transmitted, in order for the call to go through!

there is actually such a program, a friend of mine has it on his samsung from verizon, im not sure if its available for winmo phones, but it does exist and it does work, the only annoying thing is when you miss a call it sends u a random text message, if anyone is interested i could ask for the website that he got it from.
