TweakXP isn't quite as helpful here as I thought it might be. I'm guessing the registry keys involved are:
 
For global settings:
 
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\AutoplayHandlers
 
For per user settings:
 
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\AutoplayHandlers
 
Further information greatly appriciated

the value of 1 turns it on 0 is off
