Win7 Screen Cap to Realtime Video Driver?

Question

Back in the ancient days of XP, I had a program (the name escapes me) that would allow you to specify a section of screen or the active area of a window the realtime content of which would then be provided to the operating system as a video source, so you could use the screen content as if it were a camera.

Does this ring a bell with anyone?

Thanks much.

It sounds like what you're looking for is a virtual DirectShow video capture device that takes a screengrab as input.
