Re: [OT] - Video Messaging

["rb_ziggy" <richard.boreham@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks for the pointer to Camfrog.  I installed it for a trial last
night.  Have you registered the software ($49.95!), as on the
unregistered one it only has a v small video window?

Also, it's again gives access to their own IM forums.  Something that
I'm keen to avoid (as I've children whom I'd rather didn't get
exposed to IM).  I really only want to do point to point - do you
know if the register version can disable these forum features?


Thanks

Richard
