I think the word "autoplay" in the door hanger and about:preferences should get replaced with a wording better for our end users. E.g. in the door hanger it could say "automatically play" instead of "autoplay". For entertainment: web search suggests that "autoplay" is the Win 98 feature of automatically playing CDs which were loaded into the CDROM drive. Not my initial association, but shows that this is probably not the best word for this.
This has been discussed and I believe the copy writer / team agreed on autoplay being the best choice, Bryant can you confirm that this is the final copy for this? Cheers
