I have an IP camera that I installed some time ago and assigned an IP address to it. Over the months I lost the address and now can't open the camera. Is there a utility/program I can use to locate all the IP addresses on my network to try and locate the camera? Thanks.

Well you can either:
A. Start pinging address on your network (Start>Run>cmd press enter, then ping 192.168.1.x or whatever your network address may be)
or B. You could try WinFingerprint, it is free and you can put in a range of IP's to ping for you, the one you get a response on could be the camaera, depending on how many machines you have on the network.

This worked, tracked down the "missing" ip of the camera. It's working again, thanks!
