creating recovery cds

i want to create bootable recovery cds
i have never done this type of thing before,so i'm looking for a very easy to use program
once my computer is in a good condition (the way i like it) , i want to put the whole thing ,the operating system and some data,on cds or dvds
so if i experience any problems in future,i can simply dump in these cds and everything is in good condition again

so for me (my computer knowledge is very limited), which program would be able to do this?
i came across "image for windows" http://www.terabyteunlimited.com
i also came across "Paragon Drive Backup Personal"
i also came across a few freeware applications
but since i have no experience, i cannot say which one does the best job and which is easy to use
do you have any other recommendations?

and these recovery cds should work in another computer as well,in case i want to change my computer

ty.
