This is my first use of firefox. I downloaded the firefox as on internet. I tried to use the hello phone but to no avail. Do I have to fill out a form with username and password? What else?

Sorry, Hello is not for making "phone calls", as such. It is a browser to browser form of video / audio "chat" communication, using the WebRTC API. http://www.webrtc.org/home.
