    How can I download this & burn it onto a cd for a pc that isn't on the web (anymore)...?

    Download it here and burn the .exe file to a cd, then just run it on the PC you need it on.

        It's taken longer to copy the thing from the cache to the desktop than it took to download in the first place...

        All 129Mb of it...
        You should have disable the Antivirus before you downloaded it. You know that AV companies and Microsoft don't really go together.

          Major miracle. I would now consider ditching the computer and getting one that supports a newer Operating System.

            I have resusitated it for no readily apparent reason other than the challenge...

            Oh.

            And because it's a bit more up to date than the P90s with Win98 that are hanging about in the project room still.

            The other thing is that I can faff about with it to my hearts' content since it doesn't matter if I screw it up...
            Here's a challenge. Try putting Mac OS X on it. Then screwing up will come a lot easier.
