Hi everyone:
I have kaspersky antivirus 2010. When i scan vulnerabilities it shows:
'Autorun from network drives is allowed'
'Autorun from hard drives is allowed'
'Removeable Media autorun is allowed'
'CD/DVD autorun is allowed'

So i fixed it, but when i tried to rollback settings, it didn't work. I know it's unsafe to enable autorun, but what should i do to enable it?
I tried to enable autoplay by changing default settings for media or devices, but nothing changed.
Thanks for your reply.
Mak

If the Group Policy Editor is not available in the computer you can enable/disable autorun by using the registry editor in Windows instead. You can go to the following subkey in Registry:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer

and change the value of NoDriveTypeAutoRun. If you change the value to 145 (91 in hexadecimal) you will enable autorun for CDs, DVDs and USB flash drives.
