The Live Meeting Online Service provides the ability to perform Web Conferencing and provides Audio/Video Services.  If you are using Outlook, 2003 or 2007, you can install the Live Meeting Add-Ins, which allow you to schedule/create Live Meeting Conferences from your Outlook client.

When you first install the Microsoft Online Sign In Client and configure the application, the users Online account information is written to the local machine's registery, which is referenced by the Outlook 2007 Add-In.  Because of this, user's wanting to use the Live Meeting Outlook Add-In do not need to configure other than to perform a Test Connection.

Note:   Before you can use the Live Meeting Outlook Add-In to schedule meetings, you must first click the Live Meeting icon in the Microsoft Online Sign In Client and connect to your company's Online Conference Center.  This process creates your Live Meeting Online user account, which is required to connect to the Conference Center.  Once you perform this operation, you can then use the Live Meeting Outlook Add-In to schedule meetings.
