I want to make a autorun.inf file that will, once a cd-rom is inserted, run a specific html file on the cd. Now, i tried with:

open=start.htm

and

shell\open\command=iexplore.exe file://d:/start.htm

(if you see two lines, don't worry, i typed it all in one row)
The last one worked. BUT! What happens if another user doesn't have CD-ROM under d: but, say f:??????? What do I do? I spent about 4 hours serching and reading through tons of documents, but I have NO idea how to do this!

Thank you in advance, and please hurry!!!

Try using the START.exe program... in a command prompt, if you type START INDEX.HTM it runs your browser with that file, likewise with START MAP.JPG... which will start the program linked to JPGs with that file. Try something like that...
