    I was copying 5 files to my external HD when I got a message that said something like "If you want to repeat this command every time for this application, Press Yes else Press No ".

    Whatever it was, I must have answered incorrectly and now when any backup program accesses this HD or I click on the HD from MyComputer, it goes into an "Autoplay" mode and a window opens up and shows that it is copying the same exact 5 files as the original copy.

    How do I get rid of this @#$% Autoplay macro?
