I currently have an XP machine with a logitech webcam. Is there any
wares that I can download to make it motion detected? Does anyone know
how to do this?
 
Thinking outloud, "file compare saved picture from time 1 with saved
picture from time 2" Same? Nothing moved. Different. something changed.
Otherwise google security motion detectors.
 
You need hardware to detect motion, usually ultra-sonic,
like that used on outdoor security lights. There is am XP
PowerToy that will activate the cam on a schedule. You can
also buy a camera with the hardware built-in. Google for
"security webcam" returns (sample)

Many of the Logitech webcams have software to do this; it was on the disk
that came with the camera. At the risk of inciting a flame war, read the
manual that came with the camera. Also, you can use Google. There are
several freeware apps that will do what you want.

Try wheresjames.com, used the freeware for few days, ok, has both time and
motion triggers and is set up to store in file.
