What is the significance of an Autoplay dialogue box opening with some programs that run on Windows

I simply do not understand it, I don't recall anything similar happening with Windows XP.

 

It happens when I open my National Geographic Program with a CD and today it happened when I added the gadget that I plug in to my computer to back up my files with. I think that is called a 'drive' although it stays still and doesn't travel anywhere or appear

to have any moving parts and is nothing like the 'drive' in the front of some big houses round here.

 

Why use all this geeky language, when something more conventional must exist and the geek words are so easy to confuse with more established meanings for the same word?
