The Autorun feature of mounting external drives is something of a mixed blessing. In the case of the Sony Rootkit fiasco, having Autorun turned on probably helped many unsuspecting users install the rootkit when they put a CD in their tray. On the other hand, when you’re trying to install new software from disk or always want a consistent experience from a particular disk, Autorun is genuinely useful. Using APO USB Autorun, you can add Autorun functionality to any USB thumbrive, creating a setting to automatically launch a playlist, HTML page, or anything else stored on the disk. The process is simple and makes for easy configuration of disks with a few simple clicks. [Windows 9x/2k/XP $0.00]
