Greetings Steve,
You can -- but only if you and your contact are using Windows XP. Assuming you are, just go
to the Tools menu, then Audio/Video Tuning Wizard to select the camera. Then in a
conversation, click the Actions menu, 'Start Video Conference' option (the 'Webcam'
button/option will *not* make use of DV cameras).
