Hi,
Can I use Windows Messenger 5.0 to set up video conference with more than 3
parties?
And how?
Thank you for any reply.
Lee.

No, Windows Msgr 5 supports only 2 people in a video conference.

Are you saying that you have had conferences with Win Msgr 5 that you can
see 2 other clients at the same time?
Mircosoft has told me that this can not be done.

It's very strange. I can previously do multi-part video conferencing with
Netmeeting. Now with new versions of Windows, I can't see Netmeeting from
the Start menu.
What is the substitude for Netmeeting by Microsoft?
Thanks.

NetMeeting is on your XP system, however, it is not shown from the start
menus. Go to start/run and enter "conf.exe" which is the NetMeeting program
file name.
