Hello

Do you want to be able view what is inside the ISO file or do you want to be able to launch it?

Hello again,
An ISO file is a bit like a Zip file or a compression file, try this freeware program called Tugzip (Click on the blue link), This will let you extract the ISO file an then you will be able to view the files inside.

I use Daemon Tools. It's what you said you don't want (a virutal drive) but the thing is so popular and freeware that I can't imagine a reason to NOT use it.

WinRAR, UltraISO are two programs you can use too.

Please explain to me how can WinRAR work for ISO files? I thought WinRAR could extract compressed files.

Hello again,
Winrar can exract an ISO file, because and ISO file is a compressed file, Did Tugzip work?

Tugzip works the same way as Winrar, but Tuzip is freeware and unzips almost every file compression.
