I've seen a few digital cameras which won't "give it up" without their own proggie, but they are rare indeed. What I normally do is pop out the card and plug it into a USB base station from SanDisk which mounts it as a drive on USB. Simple matter of navigating down to the proper folder and copying out. However, as I indicated, some cameras are fussy and require THEIR software to read from the connector on the camera itself.

Last year I got a digital camera. At some point this year I got concerned about Autorun, malware, USB keys and all that, so I disabled it. Bye bye digital camera.Untrue. I disabled AUTORUN a long time ago -- for things like digital cameras , or anything else that relay on AUTORUN to automagically launch an application, you can always simply move files around as you would any other attached device/drive.
