What's using my webcam ?

[OFSO]

SKYPE tells me it can't acess my webcam as another program is using it. Not according what I can see, but am I seeing it all ? Any idea how I can check ? Muchas Gracias.......

Check whether there's something else installed and running that would possibly ever make use of a webcam, then close it and see if Skype succeeds.

Installing What's Running, from Welcome to WhatsRunning.net! The home of What's Running, your system information utility! will show you everything currently running and a lot of other information including resources use by each item.

OFSO,

I just checked your webcam and it seems to be working, although you and Mrs. OFSO seem to be a little perplexed.

Reboot your computer.... does the problem still occur ? If so, check your startup items.

Thanks 11Fan. On comparing the image you sent with what we see in the mirror each day, it would appear we are somebody else. Hmmm.
