RE: webcam problem
Any chance the send webcam can be put back in the future ? its a big inconvinance not being able to do it as now i cant webcam to multiple people at 1 time. Its what made msn good having the send webcam feature just having video call only is a big bother if u want to view webcam but not send, its also just 1 button so doesnt need much work so why fix something that isnt broken ?. I hope the send webcma butto nis back soon as im using the old version i can send to any1 or receive from anyone who has the odler version but any1 who has the new version it just auto closes the cam request as it dont support it.

Please put this feature back in im sure theres loads of people who will agree with me sayin it was a good feature and loosing it is not good.

RE: webcam problem
This is just a support forum for Messenger Plus! Live, no-one here works for Microsoft.  To give official feedback, try either of these places:

Give general feedback > http://feedback.live.com
Report a bug > http://windowslivehelp.com

The feature wasn't removed just to remove one button, it was to enable higher quality webcamming.  To send/receive webcam to/from people using a newer version of WLM just use 'Video Call', it will still work even if only one person has a webcam

RE: webcam problem
If you want the version that has the one-way web-cam feature follow this.

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

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

2. Follow instructions to uninstall Windows Live Messenger.
3. Then download and install this version: http://messenger.jonathankay.com/redir/w3qfe2/wlm.asp

** As said above this is not recommended and might cause problems, I've been running an old version of Windows Live Messenger and personally had no problems. It's up to you. Good Luck ;)
