AutoRun tries to start the disk external eSATA after KB971029 has been installed

After that February 9, 2011 Windows updates have been installed, my external drive eSATA would show a light continuous activity started about 40% of the time.  Reboots would normally work okay.

I found that update KB971029 posted a few days later, which appeared to address this problem.  I installed it, and startups were normal until this morning, when the activity light has appeared once more.

If this problem has really been resolved?

I've been watching closely since the latest Windows updates have been installed on my computer on March 9 and 10.  The problem with my eSATA disk has not appeared since then, and I could stop the system overnight, with a reboot every morning.

I have to take it for granted that, somewhere in these updates, the problem has been corrected.

Thank you for your patience.
