Webhelp Autorun on Flash Drive

We have a small help file that needs to be made available to users in the field without ready access to an internet connection. Is there a way to create a webhelp file on a USB flash drive which will autoplay when the driive is inserted into the computer?

Hmmm, interesting. Have you experimented with this using a flash drive? I see mentions of a CD. But I think pretty much things are made very difficult these days in efforts to prevent any sort of autorun from working because of easy malware and virus proliferation.
