The reporting service is still there, I just tried it, and it works:

I suppose your hardware firewall would be found in the router.
Now è´¸pening the ports wouldnt be really wise if its just for occasional cam use.
As you still have the 2nd firewall in XP I would suggest you turn off the routers firewall for cam use (you still have XP guarding the other ports) and have it back on again after cam - simply to maintain the full hardware based protection without exception - esp as other users might make use of knowing you use cam on yahoo and might try and go for the open cam ports - sp just dont leave them open all the time.WHY webcam does not work behind firewalls anymore...?
Software firewall creates dynamic rules when yahoo is running but HW-firewall must be configured manually. I can do that if i know exact ports which needed to open...that's all or maybe just use another program for video calls
