Contents pops up when I insert a ZIP disk

[MK]

Whenever I insert a ZIP disk into the computer a window
pops up and displays the contents of that disk. How do I
stop this.

Suggestions:
** Use the Properties of the ZIP drive. Check settings on the Autoplay
page. Select the desired action for each type of media content.

** Hold the Shift key on the keyboard down while inserting the disk. Hold
it until the initial reading activity of the drive stops. Then release the
Shift key.

** Use TweakUI for XP to disable all autoplay activity on a per drive
basis. TweakUI is one of the Power toys for XP available here:
