Well, if your goal is to be 100% certain that your camera is "out of the loop" simply unplug it. You honestly shouldn't have any troubles though.
It's called Christmas with a Capital C. Wishing you and yours, a very Merry Christmas. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jkIj94yepfU -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Jeremy Richards Sent: Monday, December 19, 2011 7:20 AM To: SkypeList Subject: [Skypeenglish] Disabling Skype Webcam Hi. For those using Skype and a webcam... I'm very afraid of accidentally leaving on my webcam since it not only records video, but it also records audio. What can I do to insure the microphone and camera are completely turned off when not using Skype? So far, when not using Skype, I make sure to log out then I go to system tray entry and hit enter on the quit button. I'm nevertheless afraid that the webcam, since it is still plugged in via USB, it might serve as a porthole to my life if someone somehow breaks into windows and manages to control the webcam. Can this actually happen? I would surely hate to blissfully pick my nose not knowing that the world can see me doing this.
