Software to turn a Webcam into a CCTV?

Hi all,
Basically I was looking for a shorter IDE cable for my WHS box today,
and I found an old Logitech web cam full of dusts in my parts bin.
So instead of throwing it away, I thought I could plug it into the WHS
and have it as a simple CCTV - seeing as the WHS box is on 24/7
anyway. At least I can tell whether the missus is home yet from my office.
My requirements are simple.
- Being able to record an image every few seconds
- Being able to stream video (preferably with sound) over the network
- Would be nice to have motion detection, but not necessary
- Would be nice to record video (preferably in Mpeg4 format), but not
necessary
Looked at a few software packages on the net, but they look rubbish
and out dated...
So has anyone got any suggestions please?
Thanks,
Wayne
