When a USB device is connected to the computer (usb drive) ... windows xp pops up a dialog asking you what you would like to do ... open the folder, etc etc
They also give you the option to save your choice for future automation Where in Windows XP can I go to make changes to these selections? IE ... I accidentally clicked the checkbox, and now every time I plug in my usb drive the folder automaticly opens, and i want to turn that off thanks! Mie |

start -> Run -> Type gpedit.msc -> Goto Administrative Templates -> System -> Find "Turn off Autoplay"
