Interesting indeed. I just pulled up my OS X box and looked at the
preferences. On my system, in the CD and DVD control panel, there are
options to do something on insert of a blank disk, or on music/video cds
or a dvd, but nothing for a Windows-like autorun. I don't even find it
in the QuickTime settings anymore which is where it was on the classic
Mac OS.

Here's a link to a discussion, but it says about the same thing I did:

Just out of curiosity, what was it that you opened up? Was it a piece of
commercial software?
