Disable the Autoplay Feature of your CD Rom Drive:

Follow these steps:
Open Registry editor (start > Run> then type "regedit" (without quotes) and press enter button
this will open registry editor
then follow this path  ...



HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\system\currentcontrolset\services\cdrom




Here on the right pane of your Registry editor you can find a DWORD value named "Autorun"(create a new DWORD value if it doesn't already exist) then double click on it and change its value to "0" (without quotes) its default value may be "1". This tweak will disable the autoplay function of your CD Rom Drive.
 
Wrong settings in the registry may cause an unpredictable problems to your Windows. So carefully change the appropriate values.
