Webcam Freeze

I like all the features on the latest version of MSN Messenger 7.0
(0813). I'm using an HP Z series laptop, Pentium 4 (1.8GHz.) 500m RAM
and ADSL. I'm also using a Logitech Messenger Webcam. MSN Messenger
seems to be working perfectlyl EXCEPT SUDDENLY when I'm in an
audio/video conversation. When the webcams start, everything is
perfect. Both parties see clean, clear streaming video. When the audio
is then started both parties hear clear picture synchronized audio. It's
great! Unfortunately, it lasts for about 10 minutes and then my
pictures freeze, audio disappears and a restart becomes necessary. I
upgraded to 7.0 from 6.2. Never had the problem with 6.2. I've checked
CPU heat and usage. Heat seems to be okay. I've redownloaded both the
Logitech and MSN software, but no help. I suspect I'm not the only one
with this problem, but haven't seen any meaninful solutions other than
redownload. Can somebody point me in the right direction? Thanks.
