PW- Kindle icon with Autorun.inf
Back in 2011 I put an autorun.inf file on my K2i so that a mini kindle icon would show for the usb drive that I attached it to... simple, silly and rather useless, but I like having it. Is there any harm in doing this on my PW?
Thanks

Here is a link to the thread that suggested it (I didn't want to resurrect the whole dead thread )-

That one linked to only involves the processing of files by the host computer (the WinBox).
The Kindle's part of the hack is only to be a file storage place.

So, if the hack is alright with your WinBox - your good to go.
