Thanks, but i know and i don't want to disable autoplay completely. I want to disable the Feature that Windows ALWAYS scans ANY folder for whatever files there are within... Therefore deactivating the 'new autoplay' feature (for simple data cds, without native autoplay.ini) just would be a part of this process (if windows cannot scan a newly inserted cd, it can not give advices on how to handle those files ;o) ) Anyway, that is NOT my main goal.. i want the scanning completely disabled... if possible :/ (well i think so, because this wasn't there in 2k ;) )
