Question How do I 'rip' a DVD? Not a movie, but a homemade video on a DVD?

I need your tech help! A friend's mom died, and they had made this DVD, a slideshow type of thing with music, to play at the memorial. She gave me a copy to take home, and has asked me to figure out how to make copies of it. I know how to make a copy of a regular audio cd, but I can't figure this out! Can you help me please?

We are using Windows Vista Home Premium. I put the dvd in the drive, and it asks me if I want to play it. It does not ask if I want to copy it. Anyhow, I know how to go to My Computer and select the cd in the drive and tell Windows to copy it, say to my desktop. Then I could go into my windows media player program and burn the cd. But this dvd is apparently different. There is no copyright on it, since her friend made it at home.

Is there a certain program on Vista I am supposed to use? Surely this cannot be difficult! I just can't seem to get the info off of the dvd and onto my hardrive so I can burn it. None of my 'tricks' are working! Can someone help me? Thanks!
