Im trying to netmeet with my sister in my country, using windows netmeeting. But when we netmeet i see her name in the netmeeting window but we cannot chat. i gave her my correct ip address and we still cant chat. the reason i want to netmeet is so i can take control over her pc and install some software for her. it wont let use use the "allow control" or "share desktop" option. It wont allow us any of the sharing capabilites. She calls me through it fine. it even says "incomming call". i accept her call, and see both of our name s in the netmeeting window. but i still cant chat with her. the chat says "not in call" or "inactive chat". so what the heck is going on? we can accept calls but not chat or allow control!

i have high speed interent using ethernet cable on the back of my pc. the external modem also connects the phone line on my wall.
