Indeed running a webcam from home is going to kill your own upstream bandwidth if you need a refresh every 30 seconds.
I have run this sort of this though web cam now. It broadcast a 'web page' from your pc containing the image. you can use 'no-ip' to cover your ip address up. It also allows you to stream audion over , play movie files through it and broadcast your desktop.
