They bundle other programs into the installer to help defray costs. Read the screens carefully during install so you can opt out of unwanted programs.

CDBurnerXP is another good burning software (same warning about installer). It's interface is a bit clearer if you are burning lots of files to a single DVD.

I use both.

Works very well..... but they recommend you should still read the screens just in case it misses any.

I've used it in the past but don't usually bother with it. I generally go to MajorGeeks for free software downloads. But I always read the screens so I don't get a Yahoo toolbar or some such.
