Re: Blocking autorun

As the article notes (and I noticed some time ago), that even with autoplay defeated, if you double clicked a CD's drive's icon, it often fired up something via autoplay. What I do now is to right click and choose Explore instead of Open.

That said, it's nice to know how to permanently block autoplay...
