Hello Forum, I have downloaded an ISO file that is 733 MB in size, my simple question is how do I burn it so it will fit in a normal CD??
Why the ISO file is originaly like that??
I have seen many BIN,ISO ect, files like that. Do we have to burn it in a dvd format???
Thanks.

You will probably be safe burning it to a normal CD, as most are 703MB for max safe size, but overburning is usually safe, 30 MB ought to not be a problem.
BIN/CUE images include usually unneeded information, and usually can be converted to an ISO image file which saves about 16% space.
Also, if you have problems overburning that CD (use the verify written data feature), go and buy some 800 or 870 MB CD's, they are out there and only a tad more expensive (they are basically 703MB CD's that have been proven safe to burn to larger amounts)
I am not sure if the included NeroBurn utility with UltraISO includes the ability to overburn but worth a try.
