I use two external hard drives, hooked up to my ultrabase at home. Every time I get home, I plug in my Thinkpad, and get the auto run search and dialogue for each drive. I could only find a way to disable autorun for cdrom's, is there any way i can disable it all together?

Try Tweak UI, there is a setting for Autoplay for removable drives.

You can also just manually disable the "Shell Hardware Detection" service, which "Provides notifications for AutoPlay hardware events."

Isn't that the most annoying feature ever? (Your opinion of the worst feature ever can start a new thread :lol: )
