So I don't think it's gonna work. You need to install it on the HD in order to install/remove programs, since a CD is read only  |

If you do install to hd, amsn is the best. It's UI is almost identical to MSN Messenger from windows and it even supports display pics. amsn.sourceforge.net. Don't download it as a package file tho, download the installer and then mke the file executable and execute, it is more up to date than the package files.
