Windows Virtual CD-ROM Control Panel
Windows Virtual CD-ROM Control Panel
The Virtual CD-ROM Control Panel utility enables users of Windows XP, Vista, and 7 to mount ISO disk image files as virtual CD-ROM drives. This can be highly useful for reading disk images to install software or recover backup files. Notes: This tool is not supported by Microsoft; use at your own risk. Windows 8 users do NOT need this tool. Windows 8 natively supports ISO files. In Windows 8, you can simply open an ISO file and Windows automatically assigns it a drive letter and reads it as a virtual drive.

Microsoft Tidbits
Apparently the next version of Windows (8.1?) will have a start button and allow you to default to desktop. Like it should have in the first place.
On the security side of things, Microsoft says we should be using anti-virus software. Who knew? :rolleyes:
Speaking of security, Outlook.com now has 2-step verification among other things.
