II don't have a "good" option to just import photos when I connect my camera

Hi, When I connect my digital camera I get a dialog box identifying the
camera and then the choice of the following programs:
Corel Photo paint
Omnipage 15
Omnipage 16
Photoshop

Corel and Omnipage 15 are not even installed on the machine anymore.
All I want when I plug in my camera is the option to import the pictures
to the pictures folder. What is the default windows vista option here
and why don't I see it?
how can I get rid of the other options and return the windows default?
Vista Business,\thanks

Have you tried Computer? Is your camera listed as an external device? If you
can see it listed then open it like any other external device such as an HD
or memory stick, and copy photo files to your computer folder.

No, it's not listed. It's a Canon EOS, I understand that this was an
issue, but I was hoping there might be a work-around

If an Autoplay window pops-up when you hook up your camera, this indicates
that your computer is communicating with your camera/external device.

1. I would expect to see the camera listed in Computer maybe as a “Removable
Disc.�
2. With camera connected to computer go to Device Manger and look under disc
drives. Camera may be listed there.
3. With the Autoplay pop-up window still open go to Default Program >change
Autoplay settings>pictures. Do the settings there match the settings in the
Autoplay pop-up window?

I suspect that Corel and Omnipage 15 weren’t uninstalled properly.
RealPlayer does that, too.

Let me know what you find.
