Thinkpad Edge E530 Webcam Question???

#1 Post by mercules » Mon Jun 25, 2012 10:00 am

Hello all,

I recently purchased a 15.6'' Thinkpad Edge E530. I am loving it. However, it seems after locking the notebook or shutting the screen and logging back in, I always get a brief display of the camera icon. I never push any buttons after unlocking the computer, but it always happens. It is kind of strange, but I was wondering if anyone else had similar issues or knows of a program that might be accessing the webcam on the notebook. I have attached a screenshot of what happens.


If anyone has any insight as to why this happens please be generous with your knowledge. It's not really a concern of mine, but just makes me a little uneasy.

Best regards,

Mercules.

I'm having this problem too. Not sure what's causing it.
