Heres a very simple, easy and lightweight to implement security webcam

Webcam Timershot
This PowerToy lets you take pictures at specified time intervals from a Webcam connected to your computer and save them to a location that you designate.

Download:

What it does is it saves pictures every certain seconds.
average filesize of the picture is about 13kb.

However the quality of the picture will depend on your webcam.
A highspeed capture webcam is needed which im not sure if there are available.

Why highspeed? because if you use ordinary webcam and a walking person
Will look like a ghost person, face is not clear. even if you set it 1 second capture.

goodluck!
