Using CD instead of password?

I'm trying to put a project together using FrontPage 2002. I've designed a
small web site that will be included on an audio CD so that when the CD is
loaded into a CDROM it will display the pages. That's the easy part. What
I'd like to do is have a link to web-based content that will only be
viewable by someone who has this CD in their CDROM. I want the web-based
content to be "off limits" to everyone other than those that have the CD. I
could use a password to keep people out, but I'd rather have the CD act as
the password. Is this possible?

Thanks!

Can you run ASP on your server?

Are you building the CDs individually for each person you are handing them out to?

No ASP. All the discs will be the same.

Ok. If you could use ASP or another server-side scripting language, and were creating the CD
individually, you could create a link back to the web site with a unique code that would then allow
access to the web based content.
