Plug any other USB device in and see if it works; like a thumb drive.Claude said:Hi

Try asking in an appropriate News Group.
USB ports and configuration is Off Topic for an anti virus News Group.
I suggest: news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.windowsxp.general
HINT: Don't connect your camera to the PC USB ports. Get a USB 2.0 Memory Card Reader that
matches the memory card used in your camera. This is the *best* way to do it.

Could the problem be related to an active on-access viral scanner?
Camera accessability issue via USB port and a relationship to viral
matters is definitely ON-TOPIC for this group:

For transferring camera memory, a card reader is convenient, but not
always the "best" way, because you might also want to edit some of the
camera's EXIF stamp info or time and date calibration while you are
about the business of camera activities with the computer.
*note - with the recent 'daylight saving time' expiration, I had to
connect both Canons via USB to reset their correct time,
well, I didn't actually HAVE to,
I could have scrolled through the camera's setup page and manually done
it through the small viewfinder.

I severly doubt that the USB problems stem from viral activity.
There may be a few items that are best handles by direct connection of a camera to the PC
like having the computer control the shutter and capture or to set a feature. However the
vast majority of features are set through a diagital's camera LCD display including the
date/time.
Using amemory card reader is the baest way to grab the opuctures becuase it doesn't waste
the cameras battery lfe and it is easier to grab ther pictures off a PC drive letter in this
fashion. Additionally, most USB 2.0 card readers will read the memory card at the fullest
dpeed vs reading off the camera.

Ever considered that if an on-access scanner is conflicting with the
camera's use of the USB port, that it might also conflict with a card
reader's use of it as well?
Seems that background running scanners are responsible for many issues
reported here, even on a clean system.

True, but the OP may not have a card in his camera, or it may be full and
internal memory is being used as the "overflow". In those cases, the only
option is to download from the camera.

I don't an On Access scanner conflicting with USB in the first place and I have never seen
a post indicating that it has happened.

Just maybe that's the conflict the OP was experiencing
with his USB/camera arrangement?

get my Canon Ixus 330 to download pics to my laptop. I re-installed the
Canon software after going through the registry to remove all traces of
Canon, that made no difference. I eventually did a repair instal of
XPHome 'over the top' which also failed allow the camera to download
pictures. I eventually restored an Acronis Image from about 10 days
earlier and that was what cured the problem.
It hadn't occurred to me till I read this thread that there could be a
'viral' reason for this. I do regular scans with BitDefender, I use
ProcessGuard, AdAware and Spybot, none of which have thrown up anything.
The error showed when the camera s/w said it couldn't see the camera
although it showed in Device Mangler. Also, it still didn't work until I
used a USB hub, then it was recognised. Then, the laptop USB port
worked.
Strange. Or perhaps not if you think otherwise?

I don't think this is a viral causative factor for problems with the USB post and nothing
has been provided to show there is.
