If you want the version that has Single Webcams

Start > (In XP, click Run) > Type in the following & press enter:

msiexec /x {B57EAFF2-D6EE-4C6C-9175-ED9F17BFC1BC}

Follow instructions to uninstall WLM.

Then download and install this version:

WLM 2010 does support webcams, you just have to do "video call".  If one person doesn't have a webcam it doesn't affect your ability to do this, it will just show a blank image, or if you don't want to transmit your picture, but still see the other person's, just disable your webcam in the Audio/Video setup....or unplug it

why would messenger plus do this? in my opionion this isnt a very good change. i think its pointless to  take a feature away. and find it quite dissapointing that i cant just go on webcam which is alot simpler then the whole video call. also when you do video call you can only be on webcam with that one person. i think messenger plus should change things back too the way they used too be.it would be apreciated by me and many of my friends

This has nothing to do with Messenger Plus!. Microsoft removed the webcam feature in favor of the Video Call.
