i need software to burn linux iso
Is there a good and free software that I can download that will burn linux iso images to cds. I would use dvd decrypter, but I think that's for dvds only. The last software I tried said that the burn was complete, but the cd was still blank.

Do you mean Linux cd writing software? If so k3b, gnomebaker or cdrecord on the command line will work fine. If you use Windows any cd burning app should work fine (as long as you don't copy the iso to cd, but burn it as a cd image).

I am using Windows. I want to know what software. Not any software will work fine. My first post says that the last software I used said the cd burning was complete, but the cd was still blank. I am looking for a free software and small software because I only need to use it once to burn a linux iso.
Look for a demo of nero 6 that is what I use on windows it is actually a really good suite does a lot of stuff like batch conversions of audio files to several formats. anyway another story for another time. I use it for burning cd's all the time.

Any dedicated cd burning app will work. I have used lots of apps e.g. nero, easycd creater etc and they burn isos fine. If you google search, you will find lots of demos or freeware that will work on windows.
There is (was?) a Windows port of the popular 'cdrecord' package. Not necessarily pretty, but it worked for me. It's how I initially bootstrapped myself into the Linux world.
