Hi Cindy,
Yup, those are the ones!  There's also one called Elephant hole.

I have tried changing the URL's several times but this time it doesn't make 
any difference.  I can't understand why in one room the same URL is working 
but not in the other.  The only difference is that the one that is working 
is XP & the other is Vista.  But it works on other Vista's.

Any other ideas?

Jan

I can't solve your problem but I do have one thought as I watch some of the
Africams too. Pete's Pond, Djuma and Nkorho. Once in a while I have noticed
that they change the urls. I don't remember which one does it but this has
happened to me when I have saved a link to a cam. Then I have to go into the 
home
page and go to the cam and save the updated link. Just a thought.

Also if they have never gone to the Djuma one it is a great cam to watch as
they take the camera on a mini safari and film live whatever they encounter. 
I
have seen every kind of animal on there. In fact I saw a Cheetah the other
day. Here is a link to this one. They only do it twice a day. I am on 
Pacific
Daylight saving time so it is at about 6:00 AM and 8:00 PM my time I think.
Otherwise it is just a still cam showing a waterhole.
