    I downloaded the latest version of YIM today. When I'm in settings, the options to change my webcam's settings and edit its source are grayed out. The last time I tried running my webcam on YIM, it froze up solid, forcing me to reboot.

    Is there something extra I need to do to get YIM to get along with my cam (which works fine with MSNM), or is YIM just too crappy to be worth bothering about?

    I downloaded and installed a new version of YIM last night and this one works with the cam. So I guess all's well that ends well. Now I just gotta hope it'll work with the new QuickCam that's supposed to come today.
