Does anybody know a good free and discreet program to record what other users on my computer are doing on the webcam?

Use it!.... and more importantly, IF you are the owner/administrator of the computer, limit what others can do on it.. If you're not the owner/administrator of the computer, speak of your concerns to the other users and understand why they're using the computer in such a manner..
Communication usually works between family members and if it doesn't, there are deeper problems here than how a webcam is used...
Hope this helps.

i was not able to find it, the program is logitech quikcam. the os is windows xp. the application in concern is yahoo messenger.
ps i really appreciate the personal advice, and i've already traveled down that road. we are well past the point of reconcilliation, and i now am just worried about protecting myself.
if you are the owner of the computer, and things are that bad, don't let her use it. (Password protect it, give her a day to remove her files, then disable her account.)
If you are not (ie: she is) you should remove any files of yours from it, secure delete any you don't want shared, and delete your user profile, I guess.
Never been through anything like this.
