Eww! Auto-run is a pretty nasty thing (a Windows thing) and I am unhappy that it's enabled by default on OS X. It seems like a bit of a security hazard.

And this hint could allow the circumvention of a new copy-protection measure that depends on auto-run to install some nasty drivers. So maybe it's a violation of the DMCA. >:P Stupid DMCA.
