Just checked the Nero folder. Nero 7 installs 470mb and much of it irrelavent, immaterial, redundant, unnecessary and beside the damned point!
The only thing showing in add/remove is Nero. The only uninstall I can find is UNNERO.exe?

A reinstall seems essential if space becomes a problem.

NOTE: Nero's proprietary format for saving compilations is .ng 
The compilation is a simple .iso file and you can change the .ng extension to .iso and open the .iso in IZarc or any of the other apps used to handle .iso

NOTE 2: I like IZarc far better than Winzip and IZarc is freeware.

YMMV  :-[

If you're interested in Nero you might want to take a look at the latest posts in Acronis True Image thread.
Nero 7 may just be the deal of the season.   ;D

I'm back!
The 332mb download is the Nero 7 Demo/Trial.
I tried to open the downloaded file with IZarc (SFX ???--- nope) so punched the .exe. I missed any options presented about what I wanted to install so it proceeded to uninstall Nero 6 (an option) and install all of Nero 7.
As a demo it fully installed, including a serial number. The demo expires in about ten days but you're presented with an opportunity to insert the serial number from your CD, which I did, it offered to check for updates, which I approved, none were available, so now I'm up and running with everything included in the Nero 7 package.
Nero Burning Rom is probably all I'll ever use but I can play with the rest of the features it offers.

That Nero 7 cd that's floating around for cheap contains a serial number that works here so unless it's so buggy it's unusable it appears to be one helluva deal.
I'll report any bugs I find to the forum.

BigJim, you might suggest this to your friend with the photo problems. It might be the cheapest and easiest solution to the problem, especially if you and I forego any commissions that may be due.   8)

Yup! You nailed it!
The CD I bought for $5 ??? is Nero 7 Essentials and is part of a bundle. It contains Suite 1 and Photoshow, an acre of cab files and a serial number.
Guess I could go shopping for bargains while that 332mb download comes in......... ;D
Not sure I have much to gain except smarts but at my current hourly rate the price seems about right.
Again, stay tuned  :)
That CD, Nero 7 Essentials may be worth the pittance they're charging for it if you don't mind the 332mb download to get the balance of the suite.
I'll be baack!

Your comments about v7 piqued my curiosity so I took another look at Nero 7 at Nero.com.
I didn't have v7 installed long enough to update it but here are the numbers from the site.......

More Details
Version7.10.1.2
Release Date2007-10-10
File Size332 MB (348462592 bytes)
MD5 checksumc1dd1dd32180e7608c05aabcbe582d1a

I'm wondering if I should reinstall v7 and apply the update?  ;D

Maybe combining parts of v6 and v7 would give me a better product?
I'll check if I didn't trash the CD for v7! Stay tuned  8)
