Webcam Query

I want to set my webcam up on my laptop at home & view it on my PC at work.
Seems a silly question but how do I view it ???

    Assuming your using it as a security camera, and assuming you have permission to use relevant software at work, and use (or are even able to use) the companies bandwidth, you will need to install programs on both PC's. the simple way would be using a messenger program like MSN/windows live messenger connected at both ends (except you'd need someone to initiate and accept within a certain amount of time.
    I'm sure if you google "Use webcam as cctv" there'll be a whole host of programs for you.
