Autostart Problem with Canon PS A570

Greetings:

I want to get a program to NOT autostart when I attach my PS a570
camera. Can any tell how to do that?

Background:
When I used to contect my a75 to my computer, a window would open
offering me a list of program to use to download the photos.

When I installed the additional software which came with my new a570,
I noticed a new program appear in that list -- CameraWindow

I clicked on the program but did not like it. So I closed it.

But now, however, whenever I connect my camera, it automatically fires
up that program!

How do I get it to revert back to offering me a list?

I tried just renaming the unwanted program to junk thinking that when
my computer couldn't find it it would go back to offering me a
choice.....NOPE! Now when I attach the camera NOTHING happens. No
choice, no autostart...nothing.

Suggestions appreciated!!

Thank you!

Right-click the camera (in My Computer), click Properties, click Autorun
tab, and change your preferences there.
