[QUOTE="Topper, post: 528022, member: 186250"] Standards in this area have dropped during the last 20 years and after a sole person slashed the tyres of a 4 x 4 opposite our house and another two cars further up the road, the police said they could not do anything without evidence. This happened about 9 weeks ago and I immediately set up an old win98 laptop and an old web cam and it has been working ever since. There are another two also in the street as I showed my neighbour how to set one up and they are obvious to anyone near the house as my camera is mounted on a small tripod. The logitech software supplied a number of years ago had a really useful security motion detector software option and when triggered can snap a still picture or a small video. Obviously I have to keep on top of housekeeping of the small 30GB Hard drive but it works a treat. [/QUOTE]
