Hi,

I have friends and family overseas who use msn to chat and are using a PC. I have a Macbook, so how can I video chat with them. What options are available if any. I tried mercury messenger, the text chat is working but video does not work, when they send me invite for video or I send them invite it tried to connect to server but we can't see each other.

It would be helpful if anyone can give me a solution.

I think aMSN has A/V support, but quite frankly it's ugly and an insult to use alongside other beautiful pieces of software.

If you can get your friends and family to use Skype as well (though I'm sure some of them may already), that's a great option for A/V. I'm a huge fan of Skype!
