Makeing an ASP + .NET website runable offline.

Hi List,
We have a requirement to take a cut down section of a website and
effectively put it onto a CD.
The site is written in ASP and .NET2 and makes use of SQL (although
convertible to access) databases which holds its data/options.
What we are looking for is to take the site and 'compile' (maybe wrong
choice of words here but hopefully gets the point out) it onto a CD where
all the end user needs to do is insert and let autorun take over. Hopefully
with little or no software installation onto the PC itself.
The target PC's are going to be XP (pro) and above - no Linux or windows 98
to get in the way with this one.
I've done a little googleing and found programs that will convert/ compile
PHP to a runable form - but nothing that will do ASP.
I'm not to bothered if it gets converted into a single runable or if it
fires off some sort of background process and kicks in the browsers - as
long as the whole thing runs without the PC using the internet.
Yours
Wayne.

You could use something like cassini:

Or you can just create an installer to install the .NET files onto the
local pc?
