Is there a safe way of deleting doubleclick.net. It is a PITA as I can't use
the browser (IE) back arrow to return to a previous site. Thanks in advance.

Here are a couple of programs that will try & copy from your damaged CD
to your hard drive. From there you can burn them to an RW CD or DVD RW.
Use ISO mode & make the CD bootable when using your burner.
