iChat video conferance with people using PCs

If I am using iChat and camcorder with my iBook G4 to video conferance family in Florida who are using a Dell PC with Logitech fusion web cam, what should we use to see each other. AIM, ichat, Yahoo? What program is the most compatible to video confernance between macs and PCs?

iBook G4, Mac OS X (10.4.4)

Hi,

Welcome to the Apple Diiscussion Pages

iChat will work to AIM 5.9 or Trillian

Both use the same AIM servers that iChat does.

Aim needs some Setting up (Tuning) first and does not do Audio Only and has a very small pic.

Trillian Basic does do Audio Only but the Pro Version ($25) is needed for Video chat

Both need enabling through the XP Service Pack 2 firewall.
