    Since iChat is excellent for video conferencing between Macs OS X, Is there any program for video conferencing between Mac OS X and windows XP? There are lots of problems in MSN and Yahoo messengers.

    Thanks for you help :confused:

    Well, Skype works well, as M@lew suggested, and also you might want to look at Trillian, an IM for Windows. It supports multiple IM clients, such as AIM, MSN/Windows Live and Yahoo Messenger. It also supports audio and video chatting.

    So if you want, you can keep using iChat under an AIM account and have your PC (or the PC you want to video chat with) use Trillian. It should work, although I've never tried it.

    Hope this helps!

    I second Skype. It's the easiest way to accomplish what you want.
