Knoppix, Lots of questions

I just want to say I did not read the forum it would take to long to compile all the information I need. I do apologize for my laziness, but looking for what im not sure about takes to long.

Now finding said program wont be hard but how do i make it possible to boot from a cd, i have daemon tools and power iso, will these work for doing what ever needs to be done?

Can knoppix access the internet?
Can knoppix access your email?
When I load the cd does it try to install or does it just open up?

Once again I apologize about asking these questions and not searching I hope you will be fourth coming with the answers and not harass me for not looking thank you in advance.

The purpose of Knoppix? It's a good way to get your feet wet in the world of linux without having to take the plunge and install anything to your hard drive. Poke around the menus and explore.

Try using magiciso to make bootable cd. It works properly.
