keep autorun but disable autoplay?

[Leeoniya]

I've been trying to determine if it's possible to prevent XP from scanning the contents of removable USB drives and CDs to determine the "type" of content - but still keep typical autorun functionality like parsing and utilizing autorun.inf to set drive icon/add context menu items or autorun a specific program (also through autorun.inf)

I can't seem to disable one and still keep the other, is there some secret or am i just stuck?

thanks,

Leon

I am also interested in this. I have used regedits before that disabled autoplay from popping up every time I inserted something into my PC, but they would still allow you to right click that drive and select autoplay and have it execute the autorun.inf file. Does anyone know the registry edits to do this?
