www.video4skype.com The only problem I can see with Skype are the Conference Calls. If a user who doesn't have the video plugin connects to the conference, all video's stop going back to audio. And there is a limit of only 4 connects. But, I'm still sold at using this as a backup solution for network problems. -- Jeremy Mann [email protected] University of Texas Health Science Center Bioinformatics Core Facility http://www.bioinformatics.uthscsa.edu Phone: (210) 567-2672
