You can't run C++ code - you need to compile it first. After that, 
you run it like any other program.

I think the automount option is once again available in KDE SC 4.4. 
Other than that, you may want to look into using /etc/fstab.

So why don't you just download it from your office?

While I agree that synaptic is a better package manager, they are all 
just front-ends to apt-get, etc. This problem isn't going to go away 
by using another front-end.

I personally use apt-mirror to mirror parts of the repo onto a local 
hard drive, but that isn't going to work in Windows (which I assume 
you use at your office).
