This looks interesting too,
The Kazaa ideas are great, I am only a little nervous of them after the stories one has read about virus attacks due to being transmitted thru the Kazaa site. I would imagine that this is different though.

Thanks for the adress PAV, will look at the site, I see they will be at Cebit. A show I have always wanted to visit, pity its in Hanover tho, a 4.5 hour drive for me.
We will see.
Thanx again
Went in 1998 with the company I worked for then and what an experience
We drove down on the Friday after work and spent 1½ days there and still did not manage to see everything. I definitely think you should go if you get the chance

Yep I would avoid Kazaa lasy year my entire system crashed and the fault was trace to a virus picked up from their site
I will avoid at all costs!!:mad:

My sister from UK visited last week, and I set it up ( Microsoft freebie MSN messenger ver 6 )on her PC ( Lapdog they brought with them) they went home and the Kids, ours and the cousins in the UK now use it daily to chat and play online games etc. The next level will be the web cam option. It Will probably be a very slow update rate, but what the hell, international telephone calls at the included cost in my ADSL connection. Its great!!!

I have not had the opportunity to look further into this as we shot off to SA for a short break last week, I am looking at a webcam as well now as one of my cousins has one and wants to hook up via the net

PAV, a lot of your normal digi cameras will double as a web cam, just has to be set up correctly.

Lance using headphones and a microphone should get rid of the feedback?
