FC6: USB drive mounts noexec

On FC6, when I insert a SanDisk Cruzer 2G or 4G flash drive, it is automatically mounted and displayed as icons on the desktop.

Recently, I tried to run a program on the USB drive and found that it mounted as no exec:
Here is the output of mount after the USB drive is recognized.
/dev/sdd1 on /media/disk type vfat (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,shortname=winnt,uid=500)
Because of this I cannot run a program. I have found that I can remount the drive with:
mount -o remount rw,exec,users,auto /media/disk
What do I do to make it automount with exec, without changing fstab?
Where is it defined to mount the usbdrive as noexec?
