    Storyline

    Edit
    Late at night Amanda witnesses on-line on 'Joannecam' the star stab-murder by a masked man who looks straight into the web-cam. Soon she finds herself the victim of such computer-engineered incidents as cancellation of her credit card for fictitious arrears and doctored traffic lights making her cause a car-crash. Jesse's cyber-café-friends track his computer down, but the 'stalker' anticipated that: it's the site of another stab-murder which he's showing on the web, as it turns out his sixth yet but not his last. Catching him will take superior sleuthing and hacking... —KGF Vissers

    • Trivia
      The title not only is reference to the classic suspense thriller Rear Window (1954), it is also a reference to then recently released Windows 98 operating system by Microsoft.
    • Goofs
      In 1998, webcam technology had not advanced to the point of being able to show full range motion as it appears in this episode. The Jennicam, which The Joannecam is based on, only offered a still photo, refreshed every three minutes. At this time experiments were being done with full range motion, but they only resulted in blocky, jerky, stop motion actions.
