Highlight, and then copy, the information between the lines of asterisks.
Go to Start | All Programs | Accessories
Open Notepad
Right click anywhere in the white area and choose "paste".
Save the file using "save as" autoplay.reg (note where you save the file to)
Close notepad
Go to where you saved the file. Double click the file to run it.
