Has anyone came across the error "netmeeting was unable to place a secure call. The certificate you have chosen may not be usable with Netmeeting" when using netmeeting. How did you resolve the problem. Tried microsoft suggestion, did not work.

YES!, Dam, though I was the only one. I tried everything from replacing the security certificate to re-installing Netmeeting, no luck. Finally re-installed OS. I have no clue why, nor could I find any info on the problem. Did find this on Tech Net though, "NetMeeting may not be able to place secure calls using the NetMeeting Certificate in Windows 95 or Windows 98 if you cancel the Windows Logon dialog. To work around this, do not cancel the logon prompt when starting Windows 98.
If multiple users are logging on to the same Windows 95 or Windows 98 computer, invalid certificates might be issued. To work around this, create separate profiles for each user logging on to the computer. This ensures that the certificates are in separate profiles." Hope this helps!
