Steve, you want a file in /etc/modprobe.d/something that has
a line that says "blacklist rt2500".  This tells the kernel not to
load the rt2500 driver unless you ask it to explicitly using
modprobe or insmod.

Hotplug is a different beast.  The blacklist there is to turn off
hotplug support for a specific pluggable device.

I have a Broadcom WLAN chipset, and I have to blacklist the
bcm43xx driver in the /etc/modprobe.d directory (I created a
new file called "wlan" with one line saying "blacklist bcm43xx").
Then I can run ndiswrapper like I always have.  I think this is
exactly the same scenario you described with your device.
