Shutting off "autoplay" on Windows XP SP2

I often plug in my U3 jumpdrive, and it will load this annoying pop-up screen asking me what I want to do with it. It tells me to pick an option.

 

I went into explorer and customized the drive by telling it to pick "Take no action" within the autoplay tab. However, it didn't seem to work. It didn't seem to work because explorer keeps opening the drive folder of my USB.

 

I'm getting annoyed by this, and I want to stop it. I don't mind if the smart u3 program starts, but I don't want to view the contents of the folder. How do I turn it off?
