I will test later, but if it's worth usage in the "real world" then a VBScript can easily be created for now. I could create one in the time it takes me to write this.

@guinness

Perhaps you could write a general vbscript that would only need some variables defined in the beginning (e.g. registry key(s), config file/dir path(s)) so it could be more modular. I can share yaP's logic as it operates the same manner.

New version out (v 421.0)

According to softpedia, oCam is Shareware/Adware now: http://www.softpedia.com/get/Multimedia ... oCam.shtml

Unfortunately the website isn't very helpful, just says it's for non-commercial use only.
