Window7 and the Webcam

Just bought a new computer with Window 7 on it. I allowed the Axis to be loaded on the computer and still no webcam picture.
What am I doing wrong, and has anyone else had this problem?

And yes I did go to tread on how to get the Axis installed.

Thanks to anyone who can help.

I got Vista and the only way is logging in Mozilla Firefox.

It seems the problem is with Internet Explorer, use Firefox. The Axis program is probably unsigned and IE will not install it unless you turn off all the internet security settings.
I use Windows 7 and Firefox, no problems with the webcam.

Try to run Internet Explorer as an administrator, that fixes it:
  • find the IE Icon under All Programs
  • Right mouse button click on it, choose "Run As Administrator"
That did it for me on my new Win7 laptop. Once you install it and it properly registers, you ought to be all set.
