I don't have a complete answer but the following may be worthwhile trying:

Rename the 'example.htm' file to 'index.html' and then copy all of the files from the Website folder to the CD. The directory structure is not necessary and the Options files are not part of the compiled DFT.

I have no idea whether this will auto-run but at least it will be easier to point the browser at the correct file - just pointing it at the CD Drive letter should be sufficent.

If it does auto-run then please let us know.
