I would like to make a CD with different programs for my students, so
they can choose and install the programs from the CD.

Anyone who knows of such a program ?

You just need a CD burner and a burner program.
Put the install files on the CD and tell your students to install the
programs from the CD.

You might try Multi Install:

Thanks POKO. Boomer size - don't blink during the download . . . ;)

Fanciness encouraged!

So why don't you start with a fancy Shockwave file?
In the case the user does not have the Flash player, you switch to a PDF
file, if the user doesn't have Acrobat Reader, you switch to a HTML
file, and if the user doesn't even have a Web browser installed, switch
to a flat TXT file, and tell him kindly to enter the millenium.

To accomplish that, the code required in autorun.inf is as simple as this:

open=ShellExe.exe intro.swf intro.pdf intro.html intro.txt

Download

Download ShellExe.zip (14K) by right clicking and choosing "Save target
as" from the context menu. In the zip file is ShellExe.exe, the launcher
tool you'll put on your CD. ShellExe is self-contained, so you don't
need any extra's to make it work from CD.

The executable is signed for safe downloads -- after download, check the
digital signature for 'Koen Mannaerts'. That's me.
An okay signature means that the file has never been tampered with.
