Check out Part # KIT4G at this site:
Telephone Lightning & Surge Protection
It is a lightning arrestor specifically designed for a phone line. I think the price is like $24.95. You do need a decent ground to which it can be connected.
The whole house surge protector from the power company (we have one) is really for the bigger equipment items in the house (like refrigerators, pumps, etc.) more so than small electronics. They catch the really big surges & you still need to protect the smaller stuff with surge protectors & UPS systems that can catch the smaller spikes.
