I do remember that there have access website to check video from your home? I cannot find the website. :(
 
Yep, chevy is on the right track.

You need to buy a security camera. I have configured a few of these for work places before. The quality will depend on how much you are willing to spend on one. Good quality video will cost a lot of money because the camera optic will be improved or larger.

How far in length is your driveway to your horse stall? 10ft? 20ft? Length is important measurement because the farther the distance, the less quality the wireless signal will have.

Next but not least, you can always see your video feed online but.. you will have to get very technical. For the most part, I personally feel an unexperienced computer person will have a hard time setting up the video stream to be viewed "publicly". What I am saying is:

A) It will be easy to set up and see from your main PC that is connected to the camera
B) If you want to see your video footage from your friends or at a library, it will be hard and pain in the ass to set up if you do not understand computer terminology. Recommend that you have help in this case!!
C) You might be able to bypass part B by using a "remote connection" - meaning, on the other person's PC, you connect to your home PC using software like PC Anywhere, GoToMyPC, and view the data as if you were at your computer. This will skip B completely, but the problem is that you need software and you also need to learn how to use this.

about 30 ft!

Comcast man can fixing website for me?

that "XCam® Wireless Webcam" have software?
 
Not sure about the XCam software, but that isn't the only security camera available.

Take a look around on here, but don't buy anything:
Newegg.com - Surveillance Cameras, Security & Surveillance

It is VERY PC technical and you won't be able to fully understand, but hopefully you might be able to notice difference from the price tags. Their inventory is huge so that is why I am encouraging you to look at all products. They also offer plenty of photos of the items they are selling. You can also see how people reacted to it by their comments, by the

pictures under the camera, means how many comments were provided [#].

The way I'll say this: Most likely the newer it is, and (possibly more expensive) the software is quality software that has everything the person wants.

The cheaper you go, the software may be "cheapened" so it doesn't have a variety of options, just basic camera monitor and no "output to web" option.

Yes, each and every single webcam will have it's own CD software that comes with it. What is inside each CD, is different for each camera.

I don't think Comcast guy will do it for you, he can only do things related to your cable problems, just to make sure the internet is working. That is all he will do by his company policy.

Who you really need is some PC guy you can trust.. Do you have a friend or son of a friends? Needs to be intelligent in PC stuffs, as this is not simple to do, you need to have some computer background. Word of advice: Don't use Bestbuy geek squad. You most likely will waste money and time.
