Autorun Autostart ?from compact flash

[Ross]

Is it possible to do autorun/autostart from Compact
flash? I thought Windows would treat it like any other
media, but it does not seem to execute an Autorun.inf
file like it would off a CD.

Is there a configuration that would allow Windows 2000
and XP to autorun a program off of a compact flash?

Thanks,

Ross

You may find an option to turn this off in TweakUI > My Computer >
AutoPlay > Types. TweakUI is available from
