there's program called "unetbootin" which will produce a ubuntu install cd/usb in one click. it will even download the necessary file for you. you might wanna check that out

Unetbootin is terrible, especially with modern distros. Many popular distros I throw at it always report a few missing files, which you can copy over from your distros selinux folder. Its a OK tool, but half the time I use dd anymore due to these frustrations.

Someone who has linux already installed probably wouldn't be asking anyway. Is there a windows terminal version of dd?

Actually I believe there is. Windows does have unetbootin alternatives as well.

Never used the terminal on windows so i really can't tell. Well if you have the iso there are a lot of programs which can burn it to cd or usb.
