Hi Live Messengers
I had the same problem: webcam greyed out and only working on my side of the
video connection, but not on the other side. I solved the problem as
mentioned. Then the bug disappeared for some time. And yesterday the bug
suddenly raised up his head again. But now, the circumvention no longer
works. What is going on?
(applies to Windows XP and Windows 7, newest version. The same version on
Vista works fine at the moment). It appears like Live messenger would move
one step forward and two backwards from time to time.
