Carol on Chrome what you do is set the webcam to Live viewing mode, then right click onto the cam. At the bottom of the right click menu you'll see "Inspect Element", click onto that and the ip url will be highlighted. Within that url you'll see the ip# for this cam, in the case of some urls, you'll see the url of the page that the cam is actually located on.
The ip# for this cam is 99.91.56.246. You take that ip# to http://www.iplocation.net/ and paste the ip# into the search box. Normally the results will give you a few different cities that are near to each other so you have to google whatever info you can gleam from the ip# location results. Some of the times the results will show that the webserver that the ip# is associated with is a Universary or the name of a company which helps you do a google search for the webcam.
I also do like Mira does and that's doing a google search for http://99.91.56.246 first and if that gives me no results then I take the ip# to iplocation.net to see what I come up with.
How have you been finding the cam info for these cams so far ?

Sorry Carol ... it's kind of hard to explain without standing next to you ... but you only copy/paste the relevant portion of the URL when doing a search, not the whole URL.
The URL for this cam is http://99.91.56.246:5000/anony/mjpg.cgi but I'd only copy the 99.91.56.246 portion of it to look up the IP# on the IP Locator website.
If the URL doesn't include an IP# then it normally has a web address embedded in it ... you would just copy/paste that portion of it into your browser search box.
LOL ... I imagine I've just confused you more now ... sorry! :)

I have chrome, it lets me copy and paste the url but won't take me there. : (

Carol, it depends if you can bring up the camera's URL by right-clicking on the image. I use Firefox so when I right-click on the image I see the option "view image info." You then look for "Location" in the screen that comes up and that gives you the info. However, if you use Chrome I'm not sure what you see. I know Internet Explorer doesn't have that option.
If you can get the image info, then it will either include the IP# or else the URL for the camera's original location. You can then copy/paste that info into your browser address bar (or into the search box of the IP finder website, if there's an IP#.) Hope that helps. :)

The url for this cam in chrome is-
