Iomega Zip, why open "explorer" when disk inserted?

[hughed00]

I happen to keep my financial files on a zip disk. So, I put an internal IDE Zip drive in my box.

Every time I put in a disk, the explorer (or whatever it is called now) opens up. I really don't like this and wish it would not, but I can't seem to dig up the place to prevent this.

I turned off all of the automatic run stuff for music, photo, etc by saying "Take No Action", but this still happens.

I expect this would happen with any insertion of removable storage media after XP is running.

Please help a poor lost

Have a read of this.

Yes, I ended up at annoyances.org. It was the CD autoplay type issue, now it applies to Zip disks as well.

I used XP Tweakui to turn it off (which locked up the system by the way, but worked fine after re-boot).
