NetMeeting setup
Setting the program Microsoft NetMeeting.

Installation of the program.
You can load the latest version of the installator Microsoft NetMeeting from:

NetMeeting is actually already installed in Windows XP/2003 after you perform a full install, but it won't appear on the Start menu until it's activated.
To activate NetMeeting:
a) Click Start, then Run, and enter Conf
b) Click OK.
c) In the NetMeeting Wizard, supply the necessary information, and then select the Put a shortcut to NetMeeting on my desktop.

After that it is necessary to start up the installator and to install NetMeeting. After that reboot the computer.

If Net Meeting is already installed.
If NetMeeting was already installed on your computer, you need to check its version. For that you need to start-up NetMeeting and select in Help menu -> About program NetMeeting (Help -> About program NetMeeting). After that you should pay attention to version number. If it is 3.0 or lower, you unambiguously need to update NetMeeting by the way of loading of its latest version and installation. Normal functioning of telephone service with the version 3.0 is impossible because NetMeeting 3.0 contains mistakes. There are no problems with the version 3.1. We recommend to use NetMeeting 3.1 (buid 4.4.3396)
