Nope you can do that. Configure it not to start unless you tell it to. And it shuts down very simply. (right click, exit and it is dead.)

Anyway to set Yahoo Messenger Service so you can easily have it running just when we want it? (Launch Yahoo messenger service and then shut it down when we are done?)

Sometimes those services which are TSR's are surprisingly stubborn...
I know MS's is.

Easiest is to use one of the Internet messaging systems. Yahoo, AIM or MSN they all allow Video messaging.

I have a relative I would like to video conference with. My personal computer presently is a Win XP Pro machine.

I believe the brand new iMac my relative is getting will have a built in webcam and I have a older Logitech Quick Cam express (and a computer mic headset) that I haven't used in years.

Can anyone advise me on the easiest ... or best ... way to video conference with my relative?

I would be willing to buy a newer camera etc if that makes things easier. Sorry but no iMac for me ... for the time being.
