Greetings Trevor,
Yes it will but you have to use the "Start Video Conference" option (under the Actions menu) in MSN Messenger 6.1, the "Webcam" option in MSN Messenger 6.1 is only compatible with MSN Messenger. ____________________________________________ Jonathan Kay Microsoft MVP - Windows Messenger/MSN Messenger Associate Expert http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/expertzone/ Messenger Resources - http://messenger.jonathankay.com "Trevor Miller" wrote in message ...

Didn't work in testing but both testing PCs were behind a LinkSys Firewall
NAT which probably explains it. I'll try further testing. -trevor "Jonathan Kay [MVP]" wrote in message ...

Tried it again with 2 different public IPs - no dice. Session initiated on
Messenger, appears on MSN, accepted on MSN, confirms on Messenger and shows Connecting as status but never connects or shows video. After about a minute Messenger says the voice conversation has ended. Thoughts? -trevor "Jonathan Kay [MVP]" wrote in message ...
