Re: Security with USB Devices

Well I'm not sure on this one but I would copy the autorun file from a 
CD that autoloads when you insert it and modify the command it gives 
while also making sure the properties stay the same. I'm sure that 
Microsoft would have enabled some sort of disabling of autoload when the 
screen is locked to prevent pranks and other stuff like what you're 
trying to do. then again my info is unfounded and based on what I can 
think of off the top of my head so take it with a grain of slat. Then 
again Microsoft Security is an oxymoron so it may work.
