This talks about editing your registry, so make sure to back it up before you do any changes, because changes are immediate (there's no undo or undelete).
Hope this helps.

1. Open My Computer

2. Under Devices with Removable Storage, right-click the device you want, such as a digital camera or CD-ROM drive, and then click Properties.

3. On the AutoPlay tab, click the multimedia content type you want to change.

4. Under Actions, click the action you want Windows to perform when it detects the media type you selected.

Well its simple just type "mmc" in the run and after that in the file menu click on add/remove snap in.....
then add the group policy from the next window for the local computer.
after that expand the local computer policy ....then expand administrative templates.....and after that click on system.....and u will see some policies in the other window containing a policy "Turn off Autoplay" just double click it and enable it and u r done.

the easiest way that I've come across is to download "TWEAK UI" for XP - this has button boxes to enable / disable autorun for data and audio CDs and umpteen other useful functions
(this, as fat as I'm concerned is a "must have" freeware powertool)
