You'll never find microsoft applications built for DSL. Microsoft doesn't make open-source or redistributable software, especially for an operating system which they consider to be in competition with them. You might find a native Linux application that will perform the same tasks, but i don't know anything about webcams to say for sure.

Point 2: I couldn't help noticing your post looks like a warez request =o)

There is a repository of packages built specifically for DSL here:

No one is going to be your personal tutor, Joe. We have forums in order to share information openly with the general public.
