WMP and USB-stick problem

Is any one able to advise me on the following problem...

Some times when I plug in my USB memory stick, wmplayer.exe starts to run in the background without being requested, and then starts accessing the USB-stick continuously, until I end the WMP process via Task Manager. This also happens is if I start WMP while the USB memory stick is plugged in.

I have never actually used WMP, but while accessing the USB-stick it appears to be fully occupied.

I would try going into the Control Panel under default programs and set what ever you want to be used with that program when you insert your USB stick. For example I usually get Auto play to open with a list of programs to use or decide on to use when, say I insert my flash drive into a usb port.
