There are a few other makes that use CCDs. Supermarket webcams are best left on the shelves. Join the most popular community of UK swingers now

I used to have a Mentor router (wired) and didn't have too many problems of that type but mentioning Tiscali has brought this to my attention further. Since I've been "unbundled" to an LLU (using non-BT exchange equipment), I've had nothing but problems with connections & speed (when up). The chances are that a service outage that needs reporting, especially if you're not seeing the "Sync" LED light up shortlt after rebooting the router.
Cheers!

I think it's being a bit militant regarding breaking broadcasting legislation! It's bad enough seeing & hearing what's being streamed via some webcams, n'mind a telly flickering away in the background at a few frames a second inside a picture the size of a cream cracker. If it was full-screen Sky Sports etc then there may be a case but, otherwise, I wouldn't worry too much.

Check to see if you have Java J2SE Runtime Environment 5 Update 7 (or later) installed and also have a look for any pop-up / ad. blocking services are running: trying turning them off & see what effect it has. If it doesn't work then you could do this if you're confident:-
It is possible to download an uninstaller from Adobe then downloading Flash 9 and also Rename (that's 9) to something else and rename to

Always look for one that has a CCD device and not a CMOS one. CCDs work at much lower light levels (I & many others use them in astronomy) and provide a better quality image & higher resolution. They are more expensive but well worth it. Philips Toucam Pro II (what I use), Philips SPC900NC (latest "version" of Toucam Pro II), Logitech do some also but have not used theirs. if you have a few bob, the Apple iSight also has auto-focus but does require a FireWire IEEE1394 connection.
Lighting makes a lot of difference; the better the lighting, the better the image... as you probably well know! ;) So don't go & get a Homebase pack of 2 webcams for unless you want to be dark, fuzzy & blocky

There are lots of things that could be the cause so elimination is the best thing. Make sure Windows Update is working as is an integral system file which gets used & called by all sorts of things & applications. If you've done that, run virus checks since it does get attacked because of its importance. There's also the option of using your Windows disc (if you have one) and doing a repair.
