In Explorer, right-click the CD-type drive, select Properties, open the
Autoplay tab.

Hotrod,

It's the Shell Hardware Detection service. The Microsoft AutoPlay Repair =
Wizard scans your computer devices to find defective AutoPlay settings, =
and attempts to fix those it finds. Download Autofix utility from here:
