In the control panel under Tools, folder, file types options, why are there items her don't have next to them?

According to my question in the title above... Tab file types... Why is it (NO) next to audio CD, disc, DVD, and a little more such elements as the folder of file, folder and to allocate to the Protocol.

Reason why I ask this is I just do a fresh install of Windows XP with SP2 and I installed SP3 after that on an old computer that was in need of a new facility. I continued to get the AutoPlay window I went to the CD and DVD players and set everything to TAKE NO ACTION. I wonder if I made a mistake by doing this. I was half way tempted to do the same for drive C, but I did not.  Is there something I can do to correct what I do that I should not have?

Also, I noticed that my computer is really slow now and it was not before.

The [NONE] you're referring to means that there are has file extensions associated with things such as Audio CDs, disks and DVDs.

A "file extension" is the 3-(4-parfois) part of a file name that comes after the period character.  For example, in "Document.doc" file extension is doc.

Made settings were - as you noted correctly - in the AutoPlay dialog box.  These settings determine what Windows does when a removable storage device is connected.  Depending on the type of multimedia content detected on the device, you can choose from a variety of "Manipulative Autoplay" to deal with this content.

"Take no action" is not a bad default.

If you want to change your mind, open my computer and right-click on the icon for a CD/DVD/USB device and select the tab "Autoplay".  You can choose from a variety of types of "content" and then choose which application should open.  For more flexibility, TweakUI--> http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/downloads/windows-xp or see

Also, I noticed that my computer is really slow now and it was not before.

A number of things could happen here.

Have you installed all necessary drivers after you reinstalled Windows?

Have you installed an antivirus application before connecting to the Internet?

Have you applied all post-sp3 Windows critical updates before you begin to surf the Internet?

Did you uninstall the trial versions of software antivirus which have been replaced (unless your new Windows installation was a "clean install")?
