I'm a newbie, need info on making backup of writeprotected game PLZ help me!!!

OK,
I just got an HP CD-Writer 9500 series but they sent crappy software and it wont copy microsoft or any write protected games. Please tell me which software is best at making an exact copy even on write protected games. There is a two yr. old and a1 yr. old running around our house and i need backups desperately!!!
Thank-You,
Poop
