You can do it by editing the registry :
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer
There is a Value "NoDriveTypeAutoRun" , change it to 0xFF and it will turn off Autplay/run 
on all drives. This is the same thing that gpedit.msc does.

See the MS documentation of this registry entry at http://www.microsoft.com/windows2000/techinfo/reskit/en-us/regentry/91525.asp
