hmm ... I haven't tried it but it looks like one of the forks or a new version of pidgin supports webcams on Yahoo messenger. I have read somewhere that kopete messenger also supports that. Skype supports webcam out of the box IIRC. And if I am not mistaken, so does Ekiga. Sorry, cannot conform this since I do not use a webcam.
