I came across this while searching for a CD recorder for Windows XP. I haven't burned a CD in a long time and I realized that I hadn't copied one since I re-imaged my system back in May of 2005. I used to use Nero but I was too lazy to find the software so I downloaded this:

It seems to be a bit faster then the built in Windows XP facility for copying data disks via drag and drop. It also lets you burn ISO's which is a plus. I'm not sure it's ready for the toolkit yet as it hasn't proven its mettle in combat yet.

I've used this a few times now and it did the job. One problem I ran into is that you can't record the ISO's off network drives or drives that are aliased with the subst command. So just keep that in mind if you are having any problems burning an ISO.
