Can;t say i've tried it but take a look at /etc/fstab :

/dev/hda        /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 user,noauto     0       0


Surely adding noexec there might be worth a try?

You can also right-click on the icon in GNOME and set mount options 
there although I don't know if the are set on a per-volume or a 
per-device basis.

Hope this is of some use.
