Granted the problem should not be happening and you don't want to tell the non-techie people to plug in the web cam after booting, but should they be unplugging the web cam either? It sounds like the problem doesn't happen if they just leave the web cam alone. Hope you find a fix though.
Harry,

good thought, but... I was asked (by users of my software) how people could save their files, and I thought a USB storage device would be ideal. Since many (most?) laptops have only 2 USB ports, they will have to unplug something to stick in a USB drive when they are done for the day. I guess if writing on NTFS was perfectly safe I wouldn't have this issue, although it is also possible someone is using the CD on someone else's computer and might like to have all their files on a USB drive anyway.
