Conference calls in Windows/MSN Messenger?

[Jarkko Setälä]

Hello! This would be a basic question, but because I could not find
the answer in the Windows Messenger documentation, I will ask it here:

Is it possible to have a voice call in MSN/Windows Messenger with more
than one part at a time, so that we can be three (or more) in a
"conference call"? And if it is possible, what is required? (there is
no need to send any video, only the sound will be transferred.)

Some of us uses Windows Messenger, and some possibly the newer
versions of MSN Messenger, but they have also WM available to avoid
incompatibility problems in advanced communication in Messenger.

Greetings Jacke,

I'm afraid not. If you want to do this today, you will need to use Skype (www.skype.com)
instead.
