    Why does WinXP not have Microsoft Netmeeting?

    This was once the industry standard for webcams. I recently got a Logitech Orbit webcam and was wondering why netmeeting is not included with WinXP.

    I tried to download it from microsoft but the newest version wont work on XP

    What do people use these days instead of netmeeting?

      I know MSN and Yahoo do video chat but is there something better? Like a dedicated program that can do conference calls and share you're desktop like netmeeting did?

              You can use your webcam with just about all the instant messengers. I believe MS stopped supporting netmeeting quite a while back. How do you like the image on your orbits, I got a couple and haven't been happy with the image quality and seemingly no ability to focus on the cam.

                  You can do it with msn ... ;) Distant assistant or something like that . In french it's "assistance a distance"

                      I agree ... wasn't imprsesed too much . For the price, I expected it to be a little bit better .

                                  You can join one of the free cam communities where you can communicate with hundreds of others on cam. Try www.anywebcam.com

                                      There it is!

                                      Why would it be hidden?

                                          The quickcam pro 4000/5000 has a better processor and much clearer picture.

                                                  Thanks.. After I signed up it says "The ANYwebcam.com Desktop is not available for download at this time."

                                                      makes sense.. too bad it had less features than netmeeting.

                                                              Go to start then "run" and type conf.exe and NetMeeting will launch.
