can anyone help me with this setup?

[iceni60]

hi, i told one of my local shops, where i buy some computer magazines, i'd help setup a motion recording security camera which would send an email when it's triggered. :o not sure why they asked for my help, they probably think i'm abit more geeky then i am because i always read PC magazines on the train and they're at the station so they always see me with computer magazines

does anyone have any ideas before i do some searching?

i found Motion (http://www.lavrsen.dk/twiki/bin/view/Motion/WebHome?CGISESSID=8cd9d78163ab0c4a35b1fac1f8d84248&CGISESSID=8cd9d78163ab0c4a35b1fac1f8d84248) which runs on Linux but i want something for windows i think.

i was hoping to find a php script i can use, i'm sure there'll be something on the internet. if not i'll have to brush up on my skills abit ;D i wonder what they'll end up with ??? probably some kind of alarm which goes off everytime they shut the till and's silent during a burglary. :wacko:
