SYMPTOMS

When you try to place a call in NetMeeting, you may receive the following error message:
All the protocols are disabled or not functioning.

CAUSE

This behavior can occur when Artisoft i.Share version 2.5 is installed on the computer. The i.Share client software disables Microsoft Transport Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP), and can cause NetMeeting not to start.

RESOLUTION

To resolve this issue, uninstall the i.Share software. Uninstalling the i.Share software restores Microsoft TCP/IP. For information about uninstalling i.Share, consult the program's documentation or manufacturer.

MORE INFORMATION

The server installation of i.Share version 2.5 does not disable Microsoft TCP/IP. NetMeeting runs correctly with an i.Share server installation.
