WebCam Software

My sister got a webcam for christmas and the webcam capture software that came with it is horrible....even for my sister.

Is there any free software that allows to take pictures (snapshots) using any webcam.

I Have had a look through the OcUK Freeware List and am really unsure which to try. What do you guys use?

Any thoughts appreciated.

EDIT.

XP Home Edition, Service Pack 2.

By taking snapshots I mean a picture using the webcam that will then save to the computer in a format such as JPG.

Has anyone got anymore ideas?

She also wants to be able to adjust the brightness, contrast and other controls of the image.

Thanks in advance.

What about still images?
