Correct, I used that command. But earlier I was really not aware that
it could generate any problem  for the auto-mount software, which for
sure has been created.

Oh, but I tries that pen drive in other PC too (my friend's) and it is
not even getting detected there (in Windows XP Prof.), so it made me
to conclude that there is some internal problem of the pen-drive,
which again is a guess but with probability more than 80%!
