I was actually thinking about this today. The right method would be to use HAL notification events to prompt the user if they want to autorun when sticking a new cdrom in. There could even be warning text in the dialog so that if it pops up with other device insertion, the user would know that it could be a virus.
It is the right way, but this must be done in the Desktop Environment.
The new Gnome Version has support for this features (Autoplay).
