Do you need the Olympus program to read from the camera?  Can't you
just download the Olympus Master-2 from their web site and use that?
I've typically gotten a CD with any camera that I've bought that has
various software tools on it for use with the camera.

Autorun is evil.  It always has been.  Just ask DoD about it and
the recent news stories about removable media.
