New to Droid As Well and a question

[kennethmgreen]

I found this, and it worked for me:

dial ##7764726
Hit Call
Type Password 000000 (that's 6 zeros)
Hit Feature Settings
Choose CD ROM
Click Disable
Hit menu, commit modifications (it will say no item changed)

Glad to help. I also found this while looking:
How do I *really* disable auto-play in Windows XP?

Since I hate AutoPlay off all varieties (I don't want any pop-up windows at all for any device that I connect or when inserting a CD/DVD), I went ahead and downloaded/installed TweakUI as the article mentioned. The preferences in Windows never seemed to "stick" for me, so hopefully this solution will be more permanent.

I know this is off-topic, but wanted to post that in case anyone else cares to turn off AutoPlay at this level. You can select which drives are affected - so you could have autoplay for CDs, but not drive G: for example.

Actually, to be on-topic, the TweakUI solution could be an alternative to the dialing codes solution I posted. I suspect TweakUI may have solved the VCAST autoplay issue for me by itself. Had I found that first, I would have gone that direction since it offers more for me.
