My PRS 600 not only auto-launches the "install software/play music/etc" dialog every time I connect it, but I also get a lovely message from XP saying that the disk is write-protected (which I assume is because the Launcher partition is write protected).
This looks to me like you have a virus (or some other resident program) which tries to infect (write to) any mass storage device that gets connected to the system, and the programmer was sloppy and didn't check for for read-only systems.
Can't really think what else could it be.
