    msn/webcam/firewall issues

    My cosin bought a webcam this christmas only to find that it doesnt work over the uni network (durham)
    - Apprently the firewall blocks it, and noone's works?
    - Is there anything you can do about this?
    - Its weird, becuase msn works, and she can send/receave files.

    Failing that, is there another wedcam/video comferecing programs that might work instead?
    - Netmeeting?

    Also, when ever i try and set up my mic to work on an msn video convo it doesnt work.
    - Even tho i can hear it coming out of the speakers, it doent register on the settup thingy.

    I am at durham and cannot find a way around using a webcam.

    Everyone who tries cannot get it to work. The webcam works internally, but not to the outside world. However skype works.

    if you set up a VPN first you have no problem using your favourate video conferancing software, so you can see her more.

    You can also HTTP tunnel.
