    I installed the drivers from Dell but feel stupid because I can't figure out how to use the darn thing.

    Under the Dell downloads, goto Applications->"Creative Labs - Application Applies to: Dell Webcam Manager"

    That'll give you a bunch of software for using it. I only like one of the apps in that package, though. It's the first one on the custom install list. I forget its name, but it lets you record and take pictures and stuff. Outside of that, it should already work with instant messengers that support it.

    Edit: It's called "Dell Webcam Center." Everything else it has seems silly to me.
