Just to balance the responses here, I have not had any problems connecting 
my G7, 300D or 450D to both XP and Vista boxes, for transferring 
photos/videos, remote capture and remote live view.  Saying that I still use 
a USB card reader most of the time though, don't know why, probably because 
I don't want any silly Canon software trying to automate the downloading of 
my images.
