Nice, I've been looking for a new version of nero on the cheap, and free is perfectly cheap, a Yorkshireman's favourite price (though I'm not from Yorkshire!!!)...

Downloading now...

That's Nero Lite (Yuk: Light, I think they mean), but a freebie nevertheless: Also downloading.

Requires EMail address, so I gave them yours


...........and I am a Yorkshireman.

It works with silly email addys - I used a@b.com

Actually I cocked up and put my real address in by mistake (failed to pay attention while using the Paste EMail facility in Firefox) - but I got an acknowledgement EMail with a Confirmation Link for Nero News.

It says if you don't want to subscribe, don't activate the link, which is a lucky escape.

Strange way of harvesting.

Hmm, installs the "Nero askDOTcom" search toolbar whether you want it or not, but, you can easily uninstall it afterwards...

Yes, I've just been poring over the associated Splash Screen looking for the "No, Thanks" button.

There wasn't one!

But I assumed it'd be like the dreaded Yah Boo Toolbar and easily binned. Thanks for confirming that!

Yeah, I was looking for the "Skip" or "No thanks" option too for a minute, but, they sneakily forgot to add it, but as I say, there is a seperate option to uninstall it in the Add/Remove programs list...

Done (Perhaps we have been)

Well theyve got yer email address to flog to some one:-HoHo dont need to put correct email address in anyway, i didnt

Use something like Guerrillamail for this kind of thing. It allows you to set up a temporary email address which is good enough for activating accounts your not sure of, or any other dodgy stuff you might be up to ;) .....it will expire in an hour if you don't reactivate it.

As for Nero, I don't see why you would want to install that bloated piece of **** on your computer. Its definitely the sledge hammer for killing spiders.

I'm still using good old 6.3.11 version... Will this new version bring me something really new and needed?

By the way it dosnt install the toolbar, it has check boxes for it , so just uncheck them:-thumbup worked for me:-googly
