Holding down the Shift-key on a CD's start-up (i.e. when the tray shuts) will have
the Autorun-feature being disabled for that "single-one-instance-of-CD-play" only.
Should you wish to disable it continuesly, then switch off the "Auto Insert"-function, eg
a property of your CdRom(DVD) drive.
Go to
Start|Settings|ControlPanel|System|CDROM|"Your CdRom player"|Settings|Options
and uncheck the "Display message on auto insert" and click OK (2x).
