Auto Run Doesn't Work!!!!
When I mount images through Power ISO nothing happens and every damn time I gotta go to my computer and click the damn thing, so annoying!

I had serious problems with viruses and spyware so I used Combofix which broke my daemon tools so I decided to get powerISO. One of programs I used asked me to disable autorun it could be combo fix that asked me I cant remember and I selected yes expecting that it would simply disable it in control panel... Is there any method I haven`t tried to make autorun work?
Ive tried everything...

Changing settings in PowerISO
changing settings in Control panel, after some research I even got down to checking registry which was also set right but it still doesnt work I also enabled GodMode and went through everything in there...

Win7 comes with a built in iso image burner btw.
Go to Control Panel\Hardware and Sound\AutoPlay
Enable or disable
save
Do yourself a favor and download MSE and Malwarebytes.
I've been running 7 for 6 months without a hiccup.
