You would have to install a file onto the user's compute rthat the software on the disc searches for before auto running (but it would still have to auto run this software) It wouldn't be true one-time autorunning, but it might get you the results you are after.
I don't know how to do it, however :)

Basically you have to create an Autorun.inf file on the CD. This would then start running a program that edited or replaced the Autorun.inf file so future uses would act differently.

Note: if what is on the CD is not a stand alone executable, then the PC would have to have a program to run the file types.
