It doesn't work! I'm tired a the autorun every time! Most annoying/useless thing ever. I have disabled it awhile ago, but I forget how.

You should be able to configure this thru the GUI. Right-click the drive in 'My Computer' and select 'Properties' then 'AutoPlay' tab. For each content type, select 'No Action'. Select 'Apply' to save the changes. This should turn off AutoPlay.
