Voice messaging
I have my machine setup with multiple
user accounts for security purposes primarily using administrator mode for installations and HD cleaning. I use a limited user mode account that I use most often. I can type messages and recieve typed messages to/from people but, voice chat in limited mode does not work at all. How do I need to setup Windows Messenger through administrator mode to allow me to have voice chat in a limited user mode account? Is this possible? Regards |

Voice messaging
Greetings,
Voice conversations on Limited Accounts do work, but only if the Internet Connection Firewall is disengaged. Unfortunately, the Internet Connection Firewall will only allow accounts with Administrator privileges to open/close the correct ports automatically for Messenger voice conversations to be successful. To correct this, you'll simply need to turn off the firewall -- to do so, click Start, then All Programs, then Accessories, then Communications, then click Network Connections. Right click your network/internet connection, then click Properties. Click the Advanced Tab, and verify that the Internet Connection Firewall is unchecked. Please note, before turning off the Internet Connection Firewall, please visit WindowsUpdate if you haven't recently to make sure you have the latest patches for your Windows XP installation: http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com ____________________________________________ Jonathan Kay Microsoft MVP - Windows Messenger/MSN Messenger Associate Expert http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/expertzone/ Messenger Resources - http://messenger.jonathankay.com "Euman" wrote in message ...
