I've never had need of them myself but for the first problem, if the information is always in the same spot on screen you might want to look at the jaws' frames facility. As I understand it a frame is sort of like a virtual window jaws lays on top of the real window and you can then get the text within the frame or be informed when the text changes.
And for the dialer, again I've never had need of it myself but there is a package called hot spot clicker maintained by a list member that may be of assistance, again especially if the window always appears at the same screen coordinates (or possibly at the same offset from its parent). As far as the list box goes have you tried assigning the listbox class to the control? (Admittedly a long shot for apps written using modern methods but still worth a try).
