Software to video your desktop?

[Devilfish]

Does anyone know of any software that will create a video of your desktop?

I want to video myself doing things on the PC (for proof) but I can't be arsed setting up the video camera, etc. and I don't have a tripod so it would be as shakey as hell.

Surely there's a piece of software that will capture what you're doing and save it as an avi or mpeg?

Cheers

EDIT: I should really google things before posting lol CamStudio - Free Screen Recording Software (http://camstudio.org)
