All done. I was being a blockhead. All I had to do was launch Nero "Express" and select Burn Image and then browse my desktop and "show all files". It worked like a charm. In fact I am running a freshly installed freshly updated Ubuntu on this machine that I am posting this with.

My next task, where to get the linux versions of:

AVG or another good free Anti-virus
Adaware
Spy Guard and Spy Blaster
Hijackthis!
