Required from version 8.11 onwards if you use the software to take pictures and capture videos, not if you don't.

This info applies to Logitech QuickCam driver version 8.3.0.1096 for the QuickCam Pro 4000. As Josef S says, ISStart.exe is loaded on startup under the name LogitechVideoRepair. I have run the Logitech QuickCam software, including capturing images and video using QuickCapture successfully with ISStart.exe at least not loaded on startup. The only anomaly that I noticed was that I was no longer able to change the webcam's settings.

Addition to previous comment: I was no longer able to change the webcam's settings *in QuickCapture*. I had access to all the normal audio and video settings through all other programs
