Well I have Aim Triton and it lets your friends who don't have a webcam see it. But I don't have Trillian, so Maybe in order for it to work you have to download Aim Triton.

You do not need a webcam to view a webcam however the person with the webcam needs to give you permission.\n\nIf you ask them and they allow it, they will invite you to see them.

Download Skype, open an account, and then have your buddy do the same thing. Or you can call regular telephone numbers if you pay for them via Skype. You can also video/audio chat via most old chat programs now - like MSN/Yahoo!/AIM - just right-click on your buddy's name in there. Also google Trillian - it's a better program for regular chat.

There isnt a way to see friends in invisible mode.  The only way is to send them a message and if you know they are online, they will respond.  If not, they will receive your msg when they sign in!

Stickam provides a live web cam widget that you can post on your web site.  Its free and you can set the preferences to only allow you access.  You'll just copy/paste the code to your web site and publish.  Registration is required, though.\n\nhttp://www.stickam.com/

the microsoft version of msn for osx doesn't support webcams. \n\nget an app called aMSN, and that'll work just fine (it does for me).

On the front page of aol.com they should have a link to AIM express.  It's an online version of the messenger program that you don't have to download.  I prefer to use that to avoid all the c*** they install on your computer when you download.\n\nYou could also get an open-source IM program.  Most of them will interface with AIM, MSN, and all the other popular, proprietary IM programs.\n\nJust go to a search engine and type "open source instant messenger" to find one.

Whatever your friends are using.  That's what makes IM useful.  \n\nI'm the same situation as you, I like the YIM interface, but all my friends use AIM.  So, my only option is to use AIM because I'm not quite persuasive enough to get them all to switch.

Connect it with your PC using a USB cable and install the required software then sign into your messenger and click on webcam!

you might need to download the newest version of aim--but you can check to see if you have the verison to turn invisible.  there should be an eyeball right below your "my aim" or above your buddy list in the gray.  Just click on it, and you will become invisible if you don't have the eye go to www.aim.com and download the newest version.  =]

Most likely, it is showing up as a question mark somewhere in your device manager.  You probably need a driver for it.  If an installation CD came with your webcam, install whatever is on it, and try again.

Yes, it is easy to watch without your permission, there is a program at http://www.oatmealmedia.net that does it. The only way to be secure and NOT be seen, is simply NOT to go on cam. There is a way to view a webcam no matter what software you use. It's not just a YaHoo thing.

Good idea.  Webcam friends.  I can't forsee anything bad coming from this.\n\n/sarcasm
