Hello abew,

Thank you for your question.

Netmeeting has changed a bit for Windows XP. TechTV notes:

"Windows XP Tip: NetMeeting in Windows XP
      
NetMeeting hasn't disappeared. It's just hiding.
 
By Roman Loyola
 
Microsoft wants Windows XP users to rely on Windows Messenger for
communicating on the Internet. If you used NetMeeting (Windows
built-in netcam program) in the past, then you're supposed to switch
to Windows Messenger. On today's episode of "Call for Help," Chris is
going to show you that NetMeeting lives in XP.

If you want to use NetMeeting, here's how you can find it. 

Click on the Start menu.
Select Run.
Type "conf" (without quotes) in the Open field and hit OK.

NetMeeting will launch. You'll have to go through the setup Wizard the
first time you launch it. "

 
Gnufrog notes the same:

"Get NetMeeting for Windows XP
If you have XP NetMeeting is preinstalled. 

1. Go to the start menu and choose "Run".

2. Type in "conf" and press "ok".

3. Follow the directions and start playing with your free Microsoft
NetMeeting for Windows XP!

Download NetMeeting 
If you have an older version of Microsoft Windows you will need to
download NetMeeting. You can get it from
http://www.microsoft.com/netmeeting. This version will NOT work with
XP..."


So, as you can see, it is already built-in to XP. 

You might also wish to read this MeetingBy Wire page on XP and
Netmeeting for more details and options:

Search Strategy:

netmeeting +XP

I trust my research has led you to the built-in version of Netmeeting
for Windows XP. If a link above should fail to work or anything
require further explanation or research, please do post a Request for
Clarification prior to rating the answer and closing the question and
I will be pleased to assist further.

Regards,
