For starters make sure you have the caps lock key set to off before you
start typing, not only is it very bad etiquette it's nearly impossible to
read, which would simply result in people not bothering to answer you.

Write protected? Are you talking about floppy disks here? Yes you're
correct that you can't write to a "CD-ROM" so yes they are write protected
in that sense.

Thirdly this isn't a place for discussions on how to circumvent copy
protection. Most publishers will simply sell you another copy of the disc
if yours becomes damaged for a reduced price.
