How about a small wrapper program which can setuid to the currently logged on user and run the browser?
Or, assuming the hotplug scripts take care of removing the module when the device is removed, a cron/otherwise timed script to run every few seconds checking for the presence of your memory stick module? Or look for an entry under /proc/bus/usb? (and of course, create/remove a lockfile according to this state!)
