How can I disable auto-launch of Picture It!

Hi,

In XP, whenever I download pictures from my camera using the Import
Pictures Wizard, Picture It! is automatically launched afterwards. Is
there a way to disable this?

Thanks,
Brian

I get the same hassle with iPhoto when I plug the card reader into
my iMac.

You could look into preferences and see if you can make something else
the default application, but I'm not optimistic. Computers often act in
a way THEY think YOU want. You may have to delete the program or at
least store it on an external drive.

Go to Image Capture and set your Preferences there. You tell it to
either open Image Capture, iPhoto, another application which you choose,
or *nothing*. Good for card reading. Then just drag and drop.
