Windows Messenger

[Mort]

Using XP Home. I would like to buy a video camera attachment so that I
can have live video conferences, but one of the requirements is Windows
Messenger. I was told that it should already be on the computer but I
cannot locate it. Going to Start|Programs, I see no program listed as
either Messenger or Windows Messenger. How can I get this program?

Any assistance would be appreciated. Thank you.

Yea, it's there. Just open up Outlook Express. But you may want to download
the latest version, which is Messenger 6. You can download it from here:

I use Netscape rather than Outlook Express. I believe that Windows
Messenger was on my machine, but I had deleted it some time ago,
thinking I would not need it. I am using Adelphia cable as my broadband
connection (just got it as a Fathers' Day gift). If I download Messenger
from the above link, must I also now use MSN? Is msnmessenger the same
as Windows Messenger?

No.
