Windows 7 doesn't support autorun on flash drives. When he gets to the part
where he's not running AV, he doesn't indicate that he's actually clicking
on anything, yet the malware runs. He sort of implies that it's happening
automatically when he mentions the video is slowed to allow us to view what
happens. How is the malware getting executed?

It really is a nasty one.  It doesn't need admin privs either.  Until
Microsoft patch it if your AV doesn't catch it you're pretty much screwed.
Disabling shortcuts is obviously not an option for most.

Nice vid of it in action

Interesting timing considering XP SP2 is now unsupported.
