The cd's we were giving out are a version of linux called knoppix.  You
can get a copy at:

http://mirror.usu.edu/mirrors/knoppix/KNOPPIX_V3.1-2003-01-20-EN.iso

As for emacs for windows get this version:

http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/windows/emacs/latest/emacs-21.2-fullbin-i386.tar.gz

To open the file you will need a program that understands .tar.gz files
(WinZip, PowerArchiver, and InfoZip) come to mind.  They should allow
you to extract it to a directory that you can run it from.
