I am using Windows XP Home Edition. My problem is that when I try to make a connection for a "Live Video" session through AIM for myself and another person, I keep getting either a message that states that a firewall is probably blocking this feature or one that states that the period of time for a reply from the other user has timed out. Both of us have accepted invitations to a Live IM Video session from the other. We have disabled our firewalls and still cannot make contact. We also have written exceptions for our firewall to allow the others computer and the AIM program without any luck. Any help would be appreciated. I had this issue about 7 years ago. At that time, it was because there was a partcular port that AOL operates on and I got that port # from a community newsgroup member. I can't remember it now and AOL will tell you to open ports 1024 through 5000. Don't want to do that.
Try Yahoo Messenger. It doesn't have this kind of problem.
