Re: CD issue with autorun.ini file

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

The filename is AUTORUN.inf
Have a look at a PC World CD/DVD or any other CD that opens a web browser.
You will see that it has something like open=rundll with the last part of
the line being index.htm

Hello

I have an autostart.ini file on a CD which does not seem to work. Does the
file need to be in the same folder as all the other files, or should it
stand
outside?

This is what I'm using:

[autorun]
shellexecute=index.htm
icon=forCD.ico
label=ICTS Anti-Virus CD

but wonder if I might have more luck with this:

[autorun]
open=ShellRun.exe index.htm Starting CD now...
icon=forCD.ico
label=ICTS Anti-Virus CD


I also thought there might be a conflict - I have some Nero CD burn
software
installed.

Thanks for any advice.

Steve
