If you can put up with the inconvenience of doing things manually then it’s safest to disable it.
To disable Autorun

  • Go to “HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\IniFileMapping”
  • Create a key called ‘Autorun.inf’.
  • Double-click the new key’s (Default) value and Enter the new value ‘@SYS:DoesNotExist’.
  • Delete the Registry key ‘HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MountPoints2′.

Now windows not run any code automatically on CDs, DVDs or removable drives, you will have to manually launch it.
