Comment (by ctdavids):
By the way, for what's it worth, Microsoft seems to have made changes in
the update in question to allow multiple applications to access the webcam
at the same time. Part of this change seems to involve svchost.exe
accessing the webcam and acting as a proxy in some way. At least that's
my best guess based on seen behaviour (for instance, the protection
software now notes access to the webcam by svchost rather that ffmpeg,
skype, or flash when those applications access it).
