The URL you have given is incorrect

First of all, you are WRONG! I never give a URL I haven't just visited.
That is indeed the correct link and specifically is not the all-hype
gimme-money link that .com is. Had you bothered to crawl off your couch
and even glance at it, you'd have discovered that all of the following
is accurate:

No, nero.org IS the correct URL; look at it! The opening page includes
the the following Nero menu:
a.. Nero Burning Software
b.. Cd Rom Replication
c.. Free Software Download
d.. Nero 9
e.. Nero Ultra Edition
f.. Ahead Nero
g.. Nero Express
h.. Nero Startsmart

The other set of links on that page is:
a.. Dvd Copying Software
b.. Backup Dvd
c.. Nero Gratis <-------------------------
a.. Video Editing Software
b.. Rome
c.. Roma
Do YOU know what Gratis means?

Nero.com is the "gimme money" version of the hype & scrape versions of
Nero and its other structures/programs.

Then, on the "gratis" page, you'll find:
Nero 9: Free Download
Ultra Fast Nero Download - Latest Version 100% Guaranteed.
Nero.9-Ultra.com

if you keep going, you come eventualy to:

http://www.ask.com/web?q=free+nero+software&o=13748&ifr=1&qsrc=999&l=dis

Had you bothered to even check the address, you would already know all
this. Just for grins, since I was there, I downloaded the latest free
version; it's upgraded compared to the free version I currently have. I
actually use Roxio over Nero, but Nero has some neat disk utilities that
I really like so I keep a copy of it around too, all in addition to my
Ulead professional-ware.

You're obviously too lazy to be of much use to answering direct
questions. As I said, I wasn't sure it was still "free" either, but
thanks to you I found the free download, downloaded it, and am quite
happy about your ignorance because of it.

Be leery of advice from a SPAMMER. They have a different agenda than
their pretense of giving help. This one does know how to put his spam
in a signature as evidenced by his first posts but refuses to do so now
because he is scared of newsreaders that strip off signatures. He wants
to ensure to shove his spam in your face.

Hello,

Nero.org is a squatter's domain with ads
http://i30.tinypic.com/2sbpvrk.jpg

The ads you are getting may be different due to ads being delivered based on
your location

The version you have downloaded may not be by Nero. You may want to verify
the source again.

Nero burning software is not free.

I tried every link for Nero software and they all wanted money. Perhaps you
could tell us which link can be used which does not provoke a call to pay?

That URL is a Parked site. Nothing is free there and most probably it
does not link up anywhere with the Nero download site

http://www.nero.com/eng/support-downloads.html

It does however have the freebie version which I downloaded and checked
out/used momentarily; I'd call that "free" in the usual sense of the
word.

I didn't check to see where the download site laid; all I was interested
in was the download and whether it was reliable, real, safe, stable and
legit. Which it seems to be.
You could be right but since it's not a major player in my toobox I'm
not inclined to check it any further. Google had nothing bad to say
about the site but that's as far as I went researching it. I'm not sure
"most probably" is worth the effort to work out at this point.

Since it was so easy, I will give you this much:

..ORG has addresses in Canada.
..COM has addresses in Germany.

I'll let you draw your own conclusions as neither was the result I
expected. See below.

Also, to be honest here, if you are trying to say the ORG is a phony
site or something is wrong with it, it would do the posters a lot more
good to see more than "most probably" and why it's important that it
links up to the COM site. I say that because the ORG is the address I've
always used, not COM, although I think I have ended up at COM in the
past. This last visit I didn't notice whether it took me there or not.

Regards,

Twayne

Do you have any references to verify that SC is spammy or otherwise
black hat? Curious people want to know; a quick check showed no spam
complaints against them and they're on no block lists checked by Robtex
which checks hundreds of lists.

They appear on the surface to be OK though I've never had any comms with
them.

Sorry, Twayne, but nero.org is a parked domain (i.e., TuCows chose to
squat on it hoping that Ahead will buy it from them for their Nero
product recognition). To get recompense for parking the domain, they
allow advertisers to put their content on these parked pages. They
disclaim any responsibility for the content of those ads or in the web
sites to which they point (because they know the content ranges from
fraudulent to malicious).

If you follow the links, and then look at the "free" download links,
they are NOT for Ahead's domain (nero.com). They are, for example:

Nero 9: Free download
nero.9-ultra.com
This domain's registrant hides behind GoDaddy's private registration
service. 208.118.54.247 is assigned to Alchemy Comm, webhoster for
this faker's site. This site wants to avoid legal disputes with
Ahead for using the trademarked "Nero" product name so you will
notice at the bottom of their home page that it says:

Disclaimer: Nero is a registered trademark of Nero Inc., which is not
affiliated with 9-ultra.com. 9-ultra.com is neither a franchisee nor
part of the authorized sales force of Nero, Inc. 9-ultra.com merely
provides a link to Nero, Inc¢s software program.

Since they are merely providing links back to Ahead's Nero product,
and since Ahead doesn't have freeware versions of their Nero product,
the "Free download" means only EXACTLY what it says: the *download*
is free, not the product! The "free" download gets you the TRIAL
version of Nero.

The "free" links to other sites have similar disclaimers. You get the
download for free. No one cares about that. It is WHAT they get for
that free *download*, and that is the trial version of Nero. Some try
to make you "join" their service which means they want you to divulge
your e-mail address for a product that isn't theirs and for a download
of a trial version. Some stick you with their special
"downloader.exe" program which isn't from Ahead, so who the hell
knows what you chose to have them run on your host.

I don't argue most of your verbosty except that I did download a free
version of Nero. Most of what you point out is honest and above board;
where is the bogosity? I clicked, I got, and it worked. You can, too.
And I'm sure even you can tell the difference between a "free" download
and a no-charge program, or a gratis program, etc..
This stuff is all pretty childish and pointless. You give info, but
it's of little use and it even refutes what I've done and waht I said I
did. Go figger.
