this has just happend to a friend of mine with him able to see some one elses cam. note his password and user name was pretty simple so use a bigger password i guess.

i used 7 cams the other day 
the problem is if you use the cams on a slow computer then your stream will take foreva to load also over wireless is probably causing the slow stream
used on a asus eee pc which is pretty slow, cpu usage at about 80-100 when using icam using internal cam and external Microsoft cam
4x on the quad core had no problems
1x on a 3500+ amd wireless about 50m away
all linked up using the same user and pass after a little trouble

also made sure to forward ports as this was and issue with 3g
and put your quality a little lower so the stream over wireless comes up faster

some issues with icam i have noticed is that the server is not refreshing quickly when changing password and user so takes forever to load. and if people are just using a name like e.g. fred and a crappy password its not going to be very secure make sure to use something decent not just 1234 or something like that, mate of mine using it just picked up some other user. so both of them would be looking at each other this problem should be fixed but then hooking up more that 1 pc would be affected so if you want to be secure put a better password !!!
all and all this software is ok but needs to be separated from the server like i said last time so we can just setup the program on the pc and connect straight away like dorgem...

worked a treat guys and the web cam works fine just got some new cams microsoft vx-700's and setup 3 and it works perfect motion detect, great software guys....
 

i will setup 1 more for a panorama view of my room, sweet -- watch out criminals   anyone step in my room and i have 4000gb of images  

iphone goes nuts as well sends about 5 beeps to warn me...

set up using a 720p cam from Microsoft for a friend as well worked a treat, also if you install a tv card you can hook up a dvr system or wireless cam and monitor the cams as well but only 1 at a time he was using some swan wireless av thing which switched from cam to cam, cams are shot so not that good but with new cams straight to TV card works good as well tv card used was a Leadtek DTV-2000H

by the way i had 1 different cam and lost the feed all cams are the same now the vx-700 and works perfect

tried using 3g and got the same error actually worked fine over wifi... using an old speed 15.00 cam !! wtf  all good picture comes out fine but for the 3g issue that has to be fixed i use dorgem as well and this let me see my cam using safari although i had to portforward my ip ports first!!! come on guys get the problem fixed looks and works great over wifi but i dont have wifi on the road 3g must be fixed
excelent app great work

can you release a version that streams straight from the pc like dorgem does no reason to connect to servers, my pc is the server !! now that would be great !!
