    Is there a way to forgo run disks for programs?

    My notebook does not have an optical drive so I was wondering if there is a way to load programs so I do not have to insert a disk everytime I want to run the program.

    There are cracks to run programs without CDs but I have a feeling that it is a topic that is not allowed to be discussed here.

    Opps sorry. The programs I want to run are 100% legal and I have no intention of breaking any kind of copyright. I just want a way to run them on my notebook without having to have it in a dock or an external drive.

    If this post is inapprpriate or against the rules please delete it as I was not aware of this and I apologize.
