Hi,

I used to call from a netmeeting server from an internet
link. When I click on a contact, it automatically
launches netmeeting.

I recently just downloaded Skype onto my computer.
However, now whenever I click on a contact from the
internet link of the netmeeting server, it launches skype
instead of netmeeting and there is an error "Skype name
not valid" as I believe the two protocal may be different.

How can I default my IE to launch netmeeting instead of
Skype or suppress my Skype?

I tried uninstalling Skype and the IE still cannot find
netmeeting to launch.

Pls help.
