I think the CD is protected by Cactus Data Shield. Anyway, if you put it
in while using Windows, remember to press the Shift key for at least a
minute to prevent autostart. If you already have made a mistake and got
the malicious programs to your hard disk, you should carefully examine the
registry.

One question, are you using SCSI-emulation on your CD-drive? If the
answer is yes, you should see

, i.e. try to alter the ripping command by hacking d->read_audio to
scsi_read_D8 on scsi_interface.c
