This issue has been solved. See solution.

I want that virus should not install on my computer from Flash Drives.At the same time i want that Users should be able to use their pen drives.
So i want that the users cannot install any program from their USB drives.

So it is possible that i can block these types of files to run from my USb drives?
*.exe, *.MSI, *.msp, *.inf, *.sys and *.dll
the only option i see is eiher block the whole USB drive and allow or block type of USB drives
