It seems that the remote video window never vitalizes and Windows Live
Messenger does not respond. Have to force the program to end. My local
video works fine and even the remote viewer can see my video. I have used
both versions 8.1 and 8.5 of messenger. This seems to be a new problem with
either Windows XP SP3 or BitDefender Internet Security 2009. Both of which I
recently upgraded to. At the moment I am only using 1 GB of RAM. Also
using Logitech Quick Cam Pro. Have uninstalled both Windows Live Messenger
and Quick Cam software and reinstalled. Nothing seems to work.
I am at a loss. Help!!! Please!!!!

Greetings Richard,

Well I can assure you it works fine with just SP3, so that isn't the direct specific problem
at least.

When you're reinstalling the Logitech software, I assume you are downloading it from Logitech
(and not using the provided CD), a lot of times these problems are driver related which is
why I'm asking.
