Autorun programs from flash drive.

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. -ARCKEDA ------------------------------------------------------------------------ This list is sponsored by: Cenzic Need to secure your web apps NOW?
