From what I've heard, Mercury Messenger has video converstation although i have not tried it myself. I have also heard the it is not as good as Mac: Messenger. Worth a shot though

Just a suggestion, try searching the forum before creating a new thread- this question has been asked and answered countless times.

msn for mac does not have video support. aMSN is the best I've found to work with people using msn on PC's no audio support but the video works pretty flawlessly (i had one issue with one person and changed some settings in my router and everything worked fine)

so check it out. http://www.amsn-project.net/
they recently updated it quite a bit and now it looks a lot like the pc version of msn and i quite like it. I didnt like mercury messenger one bit.

but to each his own, try em all, they're free afterall.

I will second what is already written. aMSN is for you. Works like a dream. I just could not warm to Mercury at all.
