      There is basically a Autorun.inf file in the root directory of the CD containing the name of a program to run when the CD is inserted. This can be prevented by holding down the 'shift' key when inserting the CD. Also, it does not work with operating systems other than Windows. I thought I just say that, because recently some very smart guy (SunnComm Technologies) invented a CD copy protection scheme on autoloading a program that prevented access to the CD. They sued the one who found out: Link here :rolleyes:


      "We trained hard, but it seemed that every time we were beginning to form up into teams we would be reorganised. I was to learn later in life that we tend to meet any new situation by reorganising: and a wonderful method it can be for creating the illusion of progress, while producing confusion, inefficiency and demoralisation." -- Caius Petronius, Roman Consul, 66 A.D.
