    Get a USB card reader and be done with it. No software required.

    Some DSLR's like my Nikon can be set into one of two modes, as a simple mass storage device effectively emulating a card reader or as a peer-to-peer device which is only really relevant if you want to do stuff like tethered shooting from the PC.

    If you just want to download photos off it then look in the manual to see if you can change the mode.

    If you can't then a card reader is the way to go.
