    Okay, here's the problem:
    Me and a mate of mine both have webcams. We both use MSN Messenger.
    Our webcams always used to work with eachother, but now for no reason atall, they don't.
    My webcam works with EVERYONE else I know, and their webcam works with EVERYONE else they know, but neither of us can send or recieve webcam from the other.

    Any ideas, guys?

    one of you updated your msn messenger, and the other one didnt? it might not be back compatible.

    one of you recently re-installed windows and dont have the correct USB drivers.

    maybe he updated his WC drivers and they are for some reason no longer compatible with MSN messenger

    i request more information in order to, or try to pin-point your problem, can he do a web-cam conversation with everyone else?

    My webcam works with EVERYONE else I know, and their webcam works with EVERYONE else they know, but neither of us can send or recieve webcam from the other.
