You can get it here: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/Downloads/powertoys/Xppowertoys.mspx You can use the tool to tweak a lot of behaviours. The one you are looking for can be found under 'My Computer' -> autoplay. I think it is the first setting: 'Enable Autoplay for CD and DVD drives'. I think that should fix it. I have deselected it and my cd/dvd drive doesn't pop-up anymore (nor autoplay).
