Just thought you might like to know that Burn4Free is spyware. Here is what
Cnet says about it.

Looks like that one's disappeared. The version on the ftp site now comes with Navhelper (as per
licence agreement):

Burn4Free is distributed with NavHelper search plugin for MS Internet Explorer (So please be
connected to internet before continue).
This means that when you install Burn4Free you also install NavHelper. By agreeing to the terms
herein you are also agreeing to the NAVEXCEL, LTD. end user license agreement for NAVHELPER.
The NAVEXCEL, LTD. end user license agreement for NAVHELPER can be found here:

I'll second that. I tried DeepBurner (the latest version) and always
got gpf type errors during the mp3 to wav conversion part of the burn
to CD process. I even tried doing the files one at a time, but
eventually I'd get an error that closed the program.

I've had absolutely no problems with CD BurnerXP Pro.
