I am running wondows xp professional service pack 2 i
connect through a 56k dial up connection (non broadband,
non router)with msn messenger & windows messenger and a
logitech mobile professional webcam. I am able to send
and receive files through both types of messenger, and i
can broadcast through my webcam again with both types of
messenger (others can see me) but i cannot see others
broadcast from their webcams, all i get is a blank screen
in the webcam pane, with a picture of a webcam with a
cross through it. Anybody got any suggestions please. (I
am running msn messenger 6.2 and windows messenger 5)
