Video conference

Does anyone know which software is better for doing live video chats. I tried using msn messenger with my in-laws but can't seem to get the two camera to find each other even though we have them configured wright. I hear using Netmeeting is better for people usning Cable or DSl internet. I use DSL and the In-laws use Cable. Put the problem is Netmeeting is not supported my XP so which should I use now. Thanks.

Have you tried starting Netmeeting by itself in XP? I didnt understand your line of netmeeting not being compatible with your XP.
How about Yahoo Messenger?

I have cable and use Netmeeting under XP to talk to my parents every week. Never had a problem with it. I have a static IP address, so they just call me at the same time every week. Not sure why you think Netmeeting doesn't work with XP....it comes with it under "Accessories/Communications" menu.
