    If anyone could help me out this one I'd really appreciate it.

    Got a Trust USB webcam a few days ago. Whenever I plug it in my internet stops working.

    I connect to the internet by wifi via a USB wifi card. When I take the webcam out again and re-insert the USB wifi card the internet works again.

    All the usb ports on my computer are active and function normally apart from this.

    Any ideas what's going on?

    I've had a similar issue with different equipment (my USB external hard-disk and my USB Creative Zen music player). It think that the problem is that - for whatever reason - the operating system has stored conflicting info for both devices. For example, it might have stored the same IRQ or memory range for them both. Therefore, only one will work at a time.

    I've never really tackled the issue in my own case because it's not necessary for me to have the player and the hard-disk connected at the same time. It's a bit more important in your case though. If you can connect either in a different way (wireless?)
