WebCam On-Off
(ver 1.4)
Freeware

When not in use, you may wish to disable your webcam 
to ensure it is not making unwanted recordings. Malware 
can take over webcams, so there is potential for spying. 
Crackers can utilize trojan-horse attacks, enabling them 
to take control of your webcam, allowing them to record 
you or take pictures of you without your knowledge.  
Unfortunately, built-in webcams cannot be unplugged.  

This utility allow you to turn your webcam on or off 
whenever desired.  When off, applications will be unable 
to detect the presense of your webcam.  There is also a 
small built-in viewer which you can use to see what your 
webcam is seeing when it is turned on (a useful aid for 
clensing your background of unwished to be viewed items).  


== Run from any folder, no installation required ==

TIP: It is a good habit to always cover your laptops 
built-in camera and microphones when not in use, 
regardless of whether you have turned them off or not.  


Note: WebCam On-Off can be run as a command-line program.
To see all the switches, type "WebCam.exe /?".
