Guess I'm going to have to be a bit more careful about these things - I've got a bit cavalier about unplugging USB devices with the recent things I've been using.
I still rip out my cable without using the wizard - works for me. You can ensure that XP does not optimize the USB connection for performance but for data integrity (somewhere in the USB dialogs), that could help. I probably did that sometime ago, if it wasn't on by default.
