"Want to know what's really going on away from your home or office? Now
you can! This Network Camera will allow you to access video and sound any
time, any place, via the Internet. This new innovation is a highly cost
and time-effective professional remote surveillance and management tool.
Featuring programmable e-mail and management software, the Network Camera
may be configured to transmit sound and video at pre-specified times to
the operating manager!"

Anyone have any idea if this can be accessed and controlled with just a
browser?  It claims the images are in JPEG image and M-JPEG image
format.but it also says it has a driver CD and requires DirectX 8.
