disable folder/drive pop ups when connecting ipods

I connect 20 iPods at a time to Vista (at a museum) and every time one
connects it pops open a folder/drive, so that eventually I have 20 windows
open on my machine. How do I disable the folder popping up every time I
connect an iPod.

It's an "AutoPlay" (see Control Panel) setting for that 'filetype'

You have already been shown how to disable AutoPlay. This is not an answer
to your question, but I do not like iTunes very much. For my iPod, I use
two things to replace iTunes. Neither are free, but do not cost much.

One is a plugin for WMP:
MGTEK dopisp (catchy name!)

The other one integrates with Windows Explorer:
Anapod Explorer

I actually use both, depending on what I am doing.
