Update 2, 5/14/10: I want to elaborate a little bit more on some comments I’m seeing here about issues with the webcam feature. Here’s a little background.

The next version of Windows Live Messenger, releasing globally in the coming months, features two-way calling with high quality audio and high-definition video. This enhancement required significant changes in the audio and video stack used across all of our Windows Live services. This week’s Wave 3 update (called “QFE3”) upgrades the current release of Messenger with the new stack. As part of this upgrade, we are retiring one-way webcam functionality.

We never take the decision lightly to remove a feature, but we think that the improvements in performance and call quality for Wave 3 customers and the addition of high-definition video for Wave 4 customers made this the right decision.

We'll need a bit more information here. New update for what specifically? And what do you mean by update file?

Windows Live Messenger doesn't update with "update files" that can be removed. The feature has been removed to make room for the new upgrades to the Windows Live Call (as far as I know). There's nothing you can do but wait or use skype.

Edit: also, you obviously know about it because you've another thread. Don't make two threads about the same subject: http://shoutbox.menthix.net/showthread.php?tid=94616
