    Ok guys... this is not a thread to be post here... but... im just frustrated with microsoft at the moment because they make the MSN 7.0 or 7.5 unavailable to everybody, now you must use MSN 8.0 or above to use it!

    I know, is a bloody free program to chat with people but man... I cant use my webcam with the program, everytime that im trying to send the invitation to see my webcam... the MSN just freeze on me... is absolutley annoying!! With Skype... everything is fine... with the old MSN was quite nice... but with the new MSN is just... gah!

    Well if anybody has a way to use it without making the MSN crash, I would more than glad to thank the man or woman who did it!!

    Thanks in advance!!! any ideas???? :(

    maybe reinstallling?
    or unistalling it one and reverting back to an older version like the 7.5
    which you can find here

    I did all that man... the bloody thing is... that when you try to login with MSN 7.5 (which I do have the setup) it says... that you cannot used it anymore because you must upgrade it!!!

    Thats the main problem... I install it... uninstall it... and it does the same thing!!! gah! with the old one... I can see the webcam when you go to the webcam settings but when you try to do it with the Windows Live Messenger 8.1 it crash!!!

    hi, I heard someone said there is a comparability problem between the HP webcam and windows Live Messenger. I think yahoo works fine. Give it a try.
