If the below does not work, you can access the camera directly at http://69.46.197.172:8081 then logon as "demo" no password. Please limit your connection time. Thank you.
We have an experimental Webcam. So far we are not overly impressed with the image quality, but the
camera is
interesting to play with... Because the camera is inside pointing out, if
it is dark outside our office lights will somewhat obscure the image.
Sample.
The camera is limited to a handful of users at a time. As more users connect, the real-time image slows to "snapshots" every xx seconds, so... be courteous to other viewers (and help us conserve our bandwidth) please do not leave your browser open to the camera when you are not viewing it...
The first time you view the camera you will need to install the ActiveX add-in
and allow Javascript... If the ActiveX does not properly install, you will
get a blank box where the image should be.
If so, modify your Internet
Browser security settings to allow the ActiveX installation.
Internet Explorer: Tools > Options > Security tab where you will click "custom"
settings for the Internet zone.
In there look for ActiveX controls and if disabled, change the level to PROMPT.
OK your way out of the settings then refresh the page.
| The two you may need to change from disabled to PROMPT are: Download unsigned ActiveX controls and Initialize and script ActiveX controls not marked as safe
NOTE: Never simply enable these, always "prompt" as you need control of what gets installed on your computer... Once the ActiveX is installed for the camera, we recommend resetting these to Disabled.

Most browsers allow Javascript, but if after allowing the ActiveX installation it still does not work, go back to security and look for scripting. Change that to prompt as well...
