Hi,
Windows wont Autorun on USB storage device automatically like in
CDROMs but will Autorun when user double clicks the Drive Icon in My
Comp. U3 on other hand would add a CDROM device which would make
windows Autorun *that* U3 CDROM hence U3 is indirectly achieving
Autorun on USB storage. Also, its pretty easy to stop Autorun feature
from registry (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Cdrom
Value=AutoRun, DWORD, Disable=0).
Regards,

Hello, and thanks for reading this. I am sure we are all know of the Autorun
feature in Cdroms and Dvdroms, how the program just runs out of the box. I
am trying to figure out how to include this functionality in flash drives.
/* I have a SD card with a USB adapter to test with. */
This would allow, say, for me to quickly insert a drive into a computer,
have it silently run something like Meterpreter or another backdoor program,
and then have remote access to the computer, assuming Windows runs it and
doesn't detect a malicious program. I understand that Windows by default
will not run Autorun.inf by default on flash drives, except the U3s. But I
have also heard that you can format a flash drive to look like a cdrom to
Windows. This is about all I know. If you have any more information, or
would know about how to go about doing this, please tell me.
Thank you again.
