Nope. After installing KB967715, GPO settings must be changed.
I do have one correction to my previous reply: After installing KB967715,
"Autorun features for network drives [may] no longer function. This is
because, by default, Autorun on network drives is set to disabled in the
registry, and after the update is installed, the previously set registry key
to disable Autorun on network drives will be properly enforced. This is the
only functionality that will change by default after the update is
installed. Users will still need to update the registry key values to
disable Autorun functionality for USB and CD-ROM drives." (Source:

OK, or you could see
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/953252. (If you
install KB953252 and then make the recommend/desired changes, you will not
need to install KB967715 nor should it be offered to the machine. Also see
the Workarounds section of KB953252.)
