    p2p program transfers slow if at all

    P2P on a 56k connection is like travelling from NY to LA on a donkey. The fastest P2P connections are the ones that spread the download over several available files and even then you will be lucky to get much over 2k/s if at all Take control of your life, not someone else's

    Windows need to write to itself on many occasions including when booting up. As a CD will not allow files to be altered the answer is no. You can boot up from other media such as a ZIP drive or similar that is large enough. Take control of your life, not someone else's
