An .ISO file contains an exact digital image of a CD or DVD that you can
send electronically to somebody else and then they re-created it on
blank media. Several OSes (i.e.: Linux boot CDs) and applications are
made available on the Internet using this file format.
If you
don't want to burn these files to a disk, some applications such as
CloneDrive allows you to mount the ISO file as a virtual CD. You won't
be able to boot your system from a virtual CD, but you can access it
and copy or execute files on the virtual media.
