Question

Where can I download a FREE webcam software?

Aug 21, 2011 2:05PM PDT

I like to use my webcam to automatically upload everything it sees and hears via FTP to a pre-defined webserver acting like a spy camera un-attended so I can view everything what happens inside my private room for sneaking and un-authorized persons.

I use GotoCamera's free webcam software. I've set up a wireless webcam in my living room, facing the front door. I had downloaded the free software from GotoCamera's website and now, i regularly watch my home when i'm away at work. worth giving it a shot. http://gotocamera.com/

I give up, I was completing the Form to sign-up, after clicking to submit, I got this error message
warning: call_user_func_array() expects parameter 1 to be a valid
callback, function 'gotocamera_check_menu_item_access' not found or
invalid function name in
/home/homecamera/httpd/htdocs-drupal/includes/menu.inc on line 453.

Wasted valuable time. Thanks anyway,
