    I did think of using Net Meeting, but on the Microsoft website it mentioned most other OS, but not XP. Should be OK then?

    System Requirements
    The following are the minimum system requirements to install and run Microsoft NetMeeting.
    90 megahertz (MHz) Pentium processor
    16 megabytes (MB) of RAM for Microsoft Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows Me
    24 megabytes (MB) of RAM for Microsoft Windows NT version 4.0 (Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 3 or later is required to enable sharing programs on Windows NT.)

    NetMeeting isn't updated anymore, but it's included with XP (C:\Program Files\NetMeeting) by default and not previous OS's.

    NetMeeting has cool remote desktop sharing features too with previous OS's :)

    OK, so I went through the installation and I get this when it starts.

    The default was to logon to the Microsoft Internet Directory, so I left as that.

    Initially I got a message saying NetMeting had been superseded by MSN Messenger and prompted me to logon to that instead.

    Any suggestions?

    that's just looking for your net meeting directories. IE a net meeting service.

    So you have to tell it to look for a specific IP when you are connecting.
