To : Jeff Guerdat From : Stan Burke Date : Tue Sep 13 2005 08:42 am Hi Jeff Guerdat, hope you had a fine day 12-Sep-05 09:28:02, Jeff Guerdat mumbled to Stan Burke Subject: Turn off autorun etc?? JG> Finally, you can use this registry entry to do the same thing: JG> ********* CUT HERE *********** JG> Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 JG> JG> [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer JG> ] JG> "NoDriveTypeAutoRun"=hex:b1,00,00,00 JG> ********* CUT HERE *********** JG> Put these three lines into Notepad and save it as Noauotplay.reg and save JG> it. JG> Now, double-click on the file and answer yes to allow it to merge the JG> setting. Jeff, tried that, as making a small reg file that I could carry and apply to different machines sounds like the best way to go for me. But when I did as above, and tried to run it, it came back and said not a vaild reg file, not binary or something to that effect, how in notepad do I save that as a valid reg file?
