My blue camera light went suddenly on?

kiicki

I got a Alienware M17x r3.
So I was just watching youtube and recognized that the blue camera light was on. It only lasted like 10 seconds I think.
Did I get hacked or something, or could this happen sometimes? I've never seen it come on before.
How can I tell if someone hacked my computer if it did happen?

Right click the video, flash settings, webcam tab. See what it says.

It was on ''Ask me when a site wants to use the camera or microphone (recommened)

Maybe it was just a minor bug.

I haven't installed any malware, So I have no clue how they could hacked me.

It may have been a software bug. Keep an eye on it though and see if it lights up again.
