Webcam feature not available on messenger?

I am having problem with the "invite to view my webcam" feature of my yahoo messenger.?

  • Everytime i invite someone to view my webcam, i get an error message and get disconnected from yahoo messenger. But I can use the video call feature so my webcam works fine. I am useing A4tech model PK-635K webcam and i just also downloaded the latest ym but still the same problem. Also, i experience this same problem with all the other computers in my computer shop. Any ideas how to fix this?

  • Answer:

    Unfortunately you do not give the error message. Make sure you have the latest A4 software in case a patch has been issued for this problem. http://www.a4tech.com/ennew/support.asp It would appear to be a conflict between the invite link and something installed on your pc. Since links are browser orientated - try downloading a new browser - use it without addons and make it your default for a trial run and see how it goes. There was a security exploit on Messenger 8, for webcam invites, but I doubt if you are using such an old version
