    One of my outdoor cameras has attracted a spider and he continually builds his web attatched to the IP camera housing. This causes the motion sensor to go off - both from the web itself, and especially when he is crawling along his web right in front of the camera. Anyone come up with a good...

    Anyone else get this? (I have purchased cameras from the Foscam website in the past - I believe it is now called Armcrest). They say in the letter that these vulnerabilities do NOT affect Armcrest branded cameras. However, I don't think that is true as one of the vulnerabilities listed...
