Can anyone tell me what I would need to put into the autorun.inf file in
order to autorun index.htm file on a USB memory stick?

I checked an external USB HDD (that does autorun), but it run an executable
file.

I did a quick search on the net, but nothing native seems to work.

I am runing Windows 2000 sp4
Any help will be greatly appreciated
Thanks, Tracey

I tried using what others have suggested natively, but none of the
suggestions appear to work.
It appears there is a well-founded aversion to autorun on removable storage
(except for CDs/DVDs) due to potential virus issues.

When I insert the USB memory stick into the slot, the memory stick is
assigned a drive letter and AVG does scan the memory stick for viruses so
Windows does auto-detect it.

If there are any obscure or esoteric configuration requirement I would like
to know.
This is not a show stopper, but it is just for convenience
Thanks anyway, Tracey
