Webcam locked by another application.

This is my first post.I have noticed some postings with the same problem.
I have a Toshiba laptop A200 with a Chicony built in webcam.
Upon startup and when i am on messenger i can open the cam ok.But sometimes the cam wont open saying that it is "locked by another application".Then i have to do a reboot and it is ok.I dont think it is a problem with the driver.My question is how can i find out what the application is that has locked it.
Someone might know how to fix this problem.
Thanks
Phil
