I've tried NetMeeting, Yahoo! Messenger, and something called Camarades. No luck with any of them. Anyone had any experience with configuring the built in firewall in XP?

I recently installed Win XP and I can't seem to get my webcams to broadcast on any software. I've tried NetMeeting, Yahoo! Messenger, and something called Camarades. No luck with any of them.

Anyone had any experience with configuring the built in firewall in XP?
