This is not an issue with Android, it is with Vista. Essentially this
is the problem:

Vista doesn't offer you the chance to update the driver. So, these are
the steps I took:
 - Find the device in device manager (under Disk Drives).
 - Update Driver Software
 - Vista says I have the best driver and won't update
 - Uninstall the driver
 - Reconnect the phone
 - The driver is reinstalled automatically
 - Turn off driver updates in system properties
 - Uninstall the driver
 - Reconnect the phone
 - The driver is still reinstalled automatically
 - Turn off driver updates (in the registry)
 - Uninstall the driver
 - Reconnect the phone
 - The driver is STILL reinstalled automatically

If someone finds a way around these, please let me know. Otherwise
I'll be using Ubuntu to develop, I guess...
