Fuji S5200/5600 are indeed pretty slow to download pictures when directly linked to a computer throught the USB port.
The only solution to speed up downloading is to remove from the camera the XD card and put it in a card reader provided with USB 2 interface.
Picasa, too, is not the fastest program to copy pictures on your PC. In my experience, XN View
(free) is faster than Picasa in copyng pics.

Canon PowerShot A590 IS problem downloading images to a windows vista machine

Try NOT connecting your camera to your computer.

The best way to download pictures from your camera to your computer involves removing the memory card from the camera and plugging it into a card reader (either built-in to the computer or connected via USB or FireWire). This is likely to be faster than connecting the camera to the computer, and won't run down your camera's batteries.

Once the card is plugged in, it will appear to your computer as a removable drive. You can use the operating system's drag&drop facility to copy pictures from the card to the computer's hard drive, the same way you copy any other files. Or you can use any photo management program such as Picasa ( http://picasa.google.com ).

I want to software for connecting the camera in to PC

hello, this camera should not require software, if you plug the camera to your pc it should install automatically and show up in My computer or Computer folder which you can find from start menu or the desktop, it will be named as a "Removable storage device" inside you will probably find DCIM folder and possibly other folders and eventually your pictures, keep looking.

a good software for pictures is picasa.

http://picasa.google.com/

picasa can download pictures from your camera, store them on your computer, and you can freely edit them with the program, also it is possible to put the pictures online.

Can not download pics to computer

Have you installed your camera's software into the computer? Sometimes if you use that program it works. Also if you have the software their website has upgrades that might help.
You could also try downloading them to Picasa or photoshop. Just throwing in my 2 cents worth.
