credit card number over the phone using her social and other sensitive
information.  She has a VoIP router from her ISP.  The question: Are
the VoIP packets encrypted as they go across the wire?   Or can
someone sniffing in the right place capture all of that sensitive VoIP

        Typically,  no.  If it uses standard SIP,  H.323 or IAX2 then
it's not encrypted.  This would be a good thing to ask your VoIP 
vender.  It is possible to secure these protocols.   I wrote a 
"Asterisk" (http://www.asterisk.org) article about this.   It can be
found at http://www.softwink.com/papers.html .  This is sorta of 
outside the scope of what your asking.
