Answer

To me - discount is more 'disbelieve or distrust' whereas disregard is 'believe, but ignore anyway'.
So - I would discount the opinions of religious zealots, but disregard the safety warnings on a tool.

Answer

From LDOCE Online:
Disregard:
To ignore something or treat it as unimportant.
Discount:
 to regard something as unlikely to be true or important.
