Whether you want to strengthen your protection from viruses and spyware, or just want to stop annoying windows from popping up when you insert a CD, DVD, or USB thumb drive into your computer --  Auto Play Squelch will disable AutoPlay and stop those Windows popups, without requiring you to dig through confusing system settings or dangerous registry hacks!

Simply download and install Auto Play Squelch, and those pop-up windows and uncalled-for program execution will be gone for good. The time and annoyance you'll save is well worth the small price.

What is Windows AutoPlay and what does Auto Play Squelch do?

When you put a CD/DVD into your computer or plug in a USB flash drive, Windows XP, Vista and Windows 7 AutoPlay (sometimes known as AutoRun) may pop up annoying windows, offering to launch a variety of programs. Sometimes it will even run such program without even prompting you!

Finding the right settings to stop AutoRun/AutoPlay can be difficult, and may require hand-editing your Windows registry -- something most computer users are not comfortable doing.  Free software to make this change may contain viruses or spyware -- which you never need to worry about with Software Candy's inexpensive solutions.

Also, with autoplay enabled some viruses and spyware can attack your computer by setting themselves up as an autorun program. This malware then can be transferred from one computer to another via your removable media. The Worm:W32/Autorun virus and the autorun.inf virus are examples of such malware, as well as the recent finding that malware that may have been spread via a USB stick was implicated in fatal Spanair plane crash.

Auto Play Squelch saves you this hassle, and gives you the ability to stop Windows AutoPlay with a quick and simple installation.  If you change your mind later, simply uninstall Auto Play Squelch and your original settings will be restored.

As with all Software Candy products, Auto Play Squelch is completely free of any viruses or spyware, and you can uninstall it completely with a single click if needed.



The beauty of this wizard is that you don't have to follow any complex instructions. Once you download this app (keep it on in an easy-to-find folder), you double-click it, click the Next button on the installation wizard and Voila!  Those pop-up windows and uncalled-for program execution will be gone.

Note: no desktop icons will be installed, as to avoid cluttering your desktop. Instead, you will find a Software Candy entry in your Start Menu, which allows you to uninstall it, should you ever want to do this.



Whether you have virus protection in the form of a Windows anti virus or anti malware, it is important to note that no virus scanner can detect all types of PC virus. Even when your computer is updated to the latest antivirus 2010, properly detects most viruses, it cannot detect all viruses.
