I would return the cd back, if possible, as you are being the victim of a scam. There aren't personal grants to get you a house in foreclosure or a car. Sorry, but you're out of luck, and out of money for what you paid for the cd for. That's why you can't get any responses, there aren't any.

No internet access? No CD rom? How did this get posted, magic?
There are no such things as personal grants, either. Try a job.

Check with non profits for housing grants or assistance such as Habitat for Humanity.
The government is NOT in the business of giving away free money for the sake of giving away money. There are no grants for paying bills, no grants for paying off credit cards, no grants for getting out of debt and no grants for buying a car
Grants are free, but it means OBLIGATION. You will be obligated to do as the grant sets out to do. Grants have objectives, and your purpose must fit the objective of the grant.
For one, you have to write the grant application and the grant application is not a simple document - you have to explain how your purpose for applying for the grant fits well with the objectives set out by the grant.
There is a stringent review process through a committee. You will compete with other applicants for the grant money, and this grant review committee will evaluate the merits of each proposal. Only those that they feel exemplifies the objective of the grant will be approved.
You can go to the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) http://www.cfda.gov and Grants.gov http://www.grants.gov - these are two sites created by the federal government to provide transparency and information on grants. Browse through the listings and see if you can find any grant that would support your purposes.
Even if you buy books on "how to get grants" or list that supposedly has information on grants -- all of them are mere rehash of what CFDA has, albeit packaged differently.
Note though that these grants generally support non-profit organizations, intermediary lending institutions, and state and local governments. Most of the federal grants are given to specific target groups with specific requirements (e.g. minority business owners involved in transportation related contracts emanating from DOT - Grant#20.905 Disadvantaged Business Enterprises Short Term Lending Program. Individuals especially for personal purposes are not eligible for federal grants.
Grants are also often given to non profit groups or organizations involved in training or other similar activities (grant 59.043 Women's Business Ownership Assistance that are given to those who will create women's business center that will train women entrepreneurs

There aren't grants to get you a house and a car. I don't know what you are talking about, about the CD.

Grants are usually for business start up and schooling for worthy personages who meet certain requirements.
Go to a bank and apply for a loan to buy your house and car. If you can't afford them, then go to FHA or a state program and see if they can help you out.
