Anyone know how to disable it? Every time I hook up a USB drive it pops up!!!! Argh! And I can't find an option to stop it at all.

Anyone know? This is driving me nuts, as I use quite a lot of USB pen drives and moving stuff about to non networked pc's.

You mean the AutoPlay Feature that gives you a list of options such as "Open Folder to View files" and "Import Pictures and Videos"?

Just click on the "View more AutoPlay options in Control Panel" when the window pops up and untick "Use AutoPlay for all media and devices".

If its not that, then it could be an MSN virus.

No it's MSN device manager. It kept askiong me to download the MSN Live device manager. I went on the MS website to download it, incase it was fake. But I found it after a quick search, dl'ed it, installed, and it doesn't pop up anymore.

Thanks anyway.

That was a real pain.
