Rooting a PC and Monitoring its Webcam Remotely

In this video Myownremote (myownremote [] googlemail [] com) demos how to break into a PC using Metasploit and activate the Webcam to snoop around in the victim's home. He uses the MS RPC DCOM exploit to compromise the computer via the Metasploit Framework, then activates WinVNC, connects to it and then activates the Webcam. The video does not show how the WinVNC executable was made available on the victim machine. However, it's easy to conclude that once you have broken into a machine and have administrator access, you could very easily transport and install any executable of your choice. This video demonstrates how an attacker could really monitor a victim's personal space, once he compromises his computer's security.
