CD Rom Drive Controlled by Internet Script

Title says it all. My cdrom drives opened when this one pop up came up. Now how the HELL did they manage this?

http://default-homepage-network.com/start.cgi?hkcu is the url I was sent to.

http://default-homepage-network.com/index2.html is the place that opened my CD rom drives!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I went to both those pages (but I always have the pop-up blocker on) so I didn't see anything change.

I looked around, looks like an ActiveX script trying to do the command. Stupid asses!!

Google's popup blocker doesn't cut it here...

VB will do this here take a look

Code:

<script language="VBScript">
<!--

Set oWMP = CreateObject("WMPlayer.OCX.7" )
Set colCDROMs = oWMP.cdromCollection

if colCDROMs.Count >= 1 then
        For i = 0 to colCDROMs.Count - 1
                colCDROMs.Item(i).Eject
        Next ' cdrom
End If

-->
</script>

It works by accessing the Windows Media Player API. Be careful this one seem to be poping up a lot people are putting it on some web site just to annoy IE people. but other than being annoying there's nothing really wrong with it.
