Bare..... You're using dialup, yes? What is your provider when you dialup? Well anyway, after you have logged onto the internet, click on "Start" and choose "Programs" and when you see the big round "e" that sez Internet Explorer, click on that. If you're not already logged onto that site, you need to either logon or register. Then you "Search" for www.talkofthevillages.com and when you bring it up on your browser (which is the Internet Explorer) you will need to sign in to TOTV as you usually do. Then click on "Search" to find the cam site. Once you've brought up the cam site on your browser, you will see in the lower right-hand corner a place to click on making the cam site bigger by clicking and a number of choices with pop up and click on 125 or 150....to enlarge the pic. As someone mentioned, the higher you go, the granier the pic becomes.

If you have succeeded in getting this far, make sure to click on the gold star on the leftside of your window while in the browser and that will set this site into your "favorites" so that when you logon again, to get to the cams all you have to do is hit the gold star and, voila, there you are.

Good luck and hope this helps.
