is webcam video saved on pc laptop
I have learned from other sources that someone in my daughter's residence has been using her built in HP webcam to broadcast tasteless video, which they deny doing.

I would like to know if it's possible to view what someone else has broadcasted via webcam on her laptop. Is there a temp folder or somewhere that the file may be stored temporarily or some other way to access this info?

Do you know what program or how they were transmitting this webcam stream to each other ? If it was via MSN i doubt that the video is stored unless it has been recoreded using a screen capture software.

So short answer probably not. Although if it was via MSN and you have access to the account, and you know the contact in question you could try viewing a message log by right clicking the contact, go to view then go to message history. It might not be automatically saved though
