Hi Everyone,
We have just bought ourselves and distant friends a Creative Webcam NX and headset.
Just wanted to know the best software to use to chat to them. eg Netmeeting etc. Bit of a virgin to all this stuff!!
Cheers! :-*

HI,
Best use yahoo messenger---you will need a yahoo ID.

Or MSN Messenger - for which you will both need a MSN Passport ID.0

Not sure about Yahoo as I don't use it, but MSN Messenger comes with video/audio tuning wizards to more or less set things up for you.
Can't say I have ever had a problem with MSN and the webcam or audio (apart from my own stupidity of course! :-[)0
