Do you have any type of photo managing program installed? Thats usually what shows up in that box.

Also, under "my computer" your iphone should show up as a drive accessable for the photos.

I used to have a bunch of viruses and ad ware and my computer was on its last limbs but i got them all cleaned up but i know that there are still some registry files that are messed up in the regedit.exe and that its probably disabled but i cant find out where.

@cpjr
No the Iphone doesnt show up in "My Computer". It doesnt show up any where besides in Itunes(I actually had to fix that to work again too) and on the desktop. I know its not my phone cause it works on my laptop. please help if you can!

I hope I can find out how to fix it or someone can tell me where it is.

These are some troubleshooting ideas that came to mind:

1. Create a new user account in XP and see if it connects there.
2. Try it on another computer with XP or vista installed.

These things won't fix the problem, but they can tell you if the problem is your phone or your computer.

Have you looked in Device manager to check that there are no red crosses or exclamation marks?
