RE: recording cam chat
Video Conversations are streamed so i don't guess it would be possible. But you can always use a screen recording program to do that ;)

Try MSN Webcam Recorder.

I'm not sure if it works with the newer versions (i.e. WLM), but its worth a shot

Uhh... I don't think so, I remember reading a thread where someone said that the video is on another metaphoric layer of the screen, and this is usually for WMP, RealPlayer, and DivX etc.

WLM/MSN/etc. most likely uses WMP to stream video (Typical MS8-))
I'd be surprised if it uses its own type of player.

Hence you probably can't record it with your average screen recorder.

Saralk's suggestion may be worth it, even if it might be incompatible. :)

EDIT: put it in bold just in case you didn't get it, Matty;)

Camstasia has no problem capturing the video from an streamed webcam by recording the video.

And I am pretty sure MSN Webcam Recorder still works I am sure I have used it in WLM.

using some screen recording software that allows you to record a specific part of the screen right?
