Stopping those prompts whenever I insert a CD

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Whenever I insert a CD, no matter what kind of content it has, Windows
usually pops up that annoying box asking what I want it to do whenever I
insert this particular type of CD. I always say "Take no action" and check
"Always do that" so it will hopefully get the hint and do nothing, including
not bother asking me any more.

I finally got tired of that and went into the Properties for the drive, and
under the AutoPlay tab I went through every line and chose "Select an option
to perform" and then "Take no action" for every item in the list (I had to
hit OK to exit after each selection to get it to take before going back in to
do the next, but now they all have that selected).

No luck, though. It still asks me every time I insert a CD.

I would like to be able to still have it auto-launch program setup routines
that are on the CD, but that's it, though I'm willing to even forfeit that it
I have to in order to get this annoying behavior to stop.

How do I achieve this?

Thanks!

Jay
