Disable CD/DVD or USB drive Autorun
Well, this is one of my most suggested and favorite computer trick. What this
small trick does is, it simply makes you to disable Autorun of any removable
drives such as cd, dvd, Pen drives etc.
You might have noticed often that, when ever you plugin your USB into the Usb
port or when you insert a cd or dvd into the cd/Dvd rom drive, Auto play
option automatically gets executed.
It is very dangerous to allow any
drive autoplay on its own, specially Usb drives. Because, along with Autorun
files, USB drives containing virus also gets executed resulting your computer
affected by virus or Trojan horses.
So this trick goes this way.
Disable CD Autorun
1) Click Start, Run and enter GPEDIT.MSC 2) Go to Computer Configuration, then-> Administrative Templates,
---> System.
3) Locate the entry for Turn autoplay off. Double click on it
4) Click on Enable.
5) Select All Drives to disable all drives including Usb
drives or only Cd Rom drive.
6) Now click
on apply.
