Call their parents and ask them. If that doesn't work, file a "web cam
inquiry" with the proper authorities.
 
Send an email message to your friends and ask them
if they have their own webcam installed.

You and your friends that you want to webcam converse with, would both have
to be using the same Messenger Program as well(installed on your computers).
Programs like Yahoo Messenger, and Windows Live Messenger, not just Yahoo
Mail, and Hotmail.
Also, you can download AIM Messenger Program(from AOL), which it sounds
like you already have done!

Don't pay any attention to the wannabe billionaire. He's a troll.

Now, I'm an old skally way of 61 and you can merely send your friends an
instant message asking them if they have a web cam. If you want more
help, feel free to email me, removing NOSPAMPLEASE from my email address.

Along the same lines, I have an older web cam (USB) vista64 will not
install. It works on XP (dual boot). I have tried logitec for drivers
(quick cam). Any ideas where to get a driver or trick Vista64 for install?
The software works it just will not recognize a driver for it. Vista sees
it and prompts for a driver.

thank you
