How to send fax via computer? -

I want to get rid of my fax machine as it was very expensive and rubbish! I have Windows XP and have the function send fax via my PC but I get an error message saying line busy , do I need to have 2 phone lines? Or have I got something set up wrong? (I have Sky, the PC and my fax machine all plugged into the one socket with a double adapter) What am I doing wrong?
