Description Wang Xin 2009-02-26 09:46:56 UTC 
After inserting a cd with ms-windows style autorun file (AUTORUN.INF), nautilus pops up a dialog ask the user if you want to auto run the program in the media. But nautilus does not support AUTORUN.EXE, autorun.inf, AUTORUN.INF now and will report "Cannot find the autorun program".

This behavior is a little confusing because if AUTORUN.EXE, autorun.inf, AUTORUN.INF is not supported, we should not pop up the dialog asking the user if he want to run it at all.
