I was told that with the new client you can't actually place a shortcut on
your desktop to the fP room like you used to be able to with IVocalize 3
and 4.  I can't remember who told me this, but it's incorrect:

tc5://?password=&room=rs55375f0e4f9a&username=&other=74.208.96.53&br=2&rt=ConferenceRoom&rl=

Use that as your target, and place your user name after username= and
before the ampersand that immediately follows it in the string above.
Whever you want a space (e.g., John Esak), use a %20 for the space.

Just used it, works fine as long as the program is registered with your
system.  I had to answer a question once about whether or not I wanted the
program associated with that URL scheme permanently.  Said yes, and bingo.
But XP automagically knew it should be associated--just had to confirm.

HTH.
