Creating bootable .iso

I have been told to create a bootable CD from this file: http://redirectingat.com/?id=267X417...DErase_3.3.zip

The folder contains an .exe along with a .diz (?) and a few readme files. How do I put this on a bootable CD?

Thanks.

The only bootable CDs I create are Windows ISOs, and I follow the steps here:

If you are looking for a hard drive zero fill utility, there are a few on the Ultimate Boot CD, or you can download DBAN, it comes as an iso, which is bootable simply by burning it as an image.

Needed HDDErase 3.3. HDDErase 3.1 is on the UBCD, but isn't compatible with what I needed to do. I fixed it by changing the HDDErase.exe in the UBCD .iso with the HDDErase.exe (3.3) that I downloaded.

Thanks!
