Hi Jonathan,
Thanks for your response. I will write more about my problem and my futile
attempts as solving it.
1) My web cam works fine with Skype.
2) Uninstalled and downloaded and installed WLM
3) Uninstalled and downloaded and installed the Logitech web cam software
for my Pro 9000 cam.
In fact, I did MANY uninstalls and installs of both.
4) I even did and uninstall with the Microsoft Install Clean Up Utility
5) Just yesterday I was able to connect to the remote user and the video
worked.
6) Both yesterday and today the audio works.
7) Today connected but remote video window did not appear, just was "Waiting
for Contact" Even my own video disappeared.
8) WLM finally says it does not respond.
So now total discouragement and frustration and disappointed in the
integrity OF the software and/or my system. I have a so-called good internet
security system......BUT....... ???????
