    I've turned off autoplay on all the types for my CD-Reader/Writer using the following (setting them all to 'Take no action':

    ***
    -Open Explorer
    -Right-Click on the CD-Rom drive letter and choose 'Properties'
    -Click on the 'Autoplay' Tab
    -Adjust each of the data types to do what you want when a CD is inserted.
    -Press 'OK'
    ***

    BUT

    some CDs are still 'autorunning'. How can this be? Is there somewhere else I still have to shut this annoying feature off?
