Either use Safe Mode to get in and uninstall the camera program, or use System Restore to go back to before he put the software in. The second is probably his best bet. If its Kodak software, tell him to throw it away and use a card reader to read the memory card. Kodak software is the worst invention since the parachute that opens on impact.

Ken - Snap I had written almost same solution except before I finished my screen froze and I couldn't post the reply except for the comment on Kodak software. Came back in and thought odd I didn't say all that

He managed to get it into Safe Mode and everything was ok so he booted it back into normal mode and everything was ok
Computers can be weird at times
Thanks for the replies

I have heard they can take on the personality of their owners.
