    Internet Camera Integration (not standard webcam) [RESOLVED]

    I am wondering if anyone has experience with internet cameras and VB. From what I have seen on my internet camera so far, it cannot register as a regular camera device. It has two ways to view its feed. "ActiveX" and "Java." I simply want this feed into VB. Currently, I have a web browser that opens the java feed automatically. This is decent, but as you can imagine there are problems. I was hoping that there is a way to grab the ACTUAL feed from this internet camera as if it were a USB device (maybe some sort of virtual driver someway somehow?) and then I can just use code that is posted all over the net concerning regular webcams. Unfortunately it seems that these cameras are only intended for web use and I might be limited to having to stick with the web browser and keep editing all the html files to do what I need. This is such a sloppy way to do it, I wish I could fix it, any thoughts? (And it has to be an internet camera, because I am accessing it remotely).
