Courtney,

Sounds like you burned the CD like a standard data CD.  ie. You did
drag and drop or something similar.

With ISOs, you have to specifically invoke the "burn ISO" functionality.

With K3B it is under "tools - burn CD image".  ie. The ISO is and
image of the CD, not simply a collection of files.
