Mark, I think it's just some generic brand IR filter that cost me AU$60 from Telescopes-Astronomy where I bought the webcam.
They had Edmund Scientific ones at twice the price, but I didn't want to spend that much.
I'll try it without the IR filter as a test, but surely there's a way to either elminate some of the blue during capture, or eliminate all of it during post-processing photoshop.
I know my gain and gamma and brightness were all too high, i'll try again with lower settings for those, and so I can just see Saturn on the screen.
The conditions were horrible this morning, but I only have the laptop every 2nd week and didn't want to waste a morning even when I knew the results would be frustrating.. it's all a learning process and i've learnt a lot today already.
If it's clear tomorrow morning hopefully i'll be more productive. I can tell i'm going to be tired at the end of the week though.. 3:30am mornings
