Neat!
It wont' work in Mozilla or Netscape(I think) or Opera. If you look at the page source it's just a fairly short 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
The If statement is simple to make sure all the drives open. the WMPlayer part of it makes me think that it has to do with windows media player.

You know we spend so much time worried about firewalls and antivirus, and malware, and spyware, ect... Yet something as simple as a few lines of code from out there can physically affect my PC, what else can be done in this manner? My firewall has a stealth mode and most sites think I'm using Netscape ;) , this trick worked however.

That's the third variation of that I've seen so far. Problem is, It crashes my computer after the drive opens. Any ideas why? IE 6 and windows 98 SE :D
