Hi, It might be this issue, if you have McAfee Site Advisor and a webcam.... please note, that some laptops come with a built-in webcam, usually found in the upper edge of the LCD screen, so when the computer lid is open, the cam is pointing.....at YOU!!!!

I get people really anxious sometimes when I tell them this- be surprised how many don't know they have a camera.

Hello Bytman,
Thank you for your help.I can't help but think my problem has something to do with version 14 of Windows Messenger.
Just recently every one using Messenger were advised to upgrade their software to version 14. Up till then I had been using version 8.1 without any problems at all so, I suspect the problem is with the upgrade. Had i changed anything I.E. camera, antivirus programmes firewall ect I could suspect them but i have not.
Anyway many thanks for you help.

Thank you Bytman,
Your reply is appreciated.
The strange thing is that on a recently purchased laptop we have the sameMessenger version installed I.E. Messenger version 14.00.This works perfectly the only difference is my desktop, where I am having the trouble has XP installed and the laptop Vista home premium. Maybe The answer lies there? has any one else mentioned this?

Thank you
jaysto
