How to burn DVD isos in Windows?

[ThinkBuntu]

Like many of you, I'm chained to my desk eight hours a day, and beneath my desk is a Windows machine provided by my employer. Also like many of you, I abuse the hell out of my office connection (no internet at home), and in my case, I primarily use the extra bandwidth to download Linux ISOs. For a while now, I've used the free "ISO Recorder (http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm)" which is a great light-weight addition that allows me to burn a disk image from the context menu.

The only problem is that ISO Recorder only supports DVD burning in Vista, and even that hasn't made it into a stable release of the utility yet. What's a good, free way to burn DVD images in Windows? My knowledge of computers is weakest with Windows, which I only use when I have to, like in an office.

Note: I've posted this in the Cafe, but any mods who think it's too support-oriented can move it to the Other OS > Distributions > Windows forum.

I use Nero Burning Rom for all my burning needs, but I'm sure its not free. (Mine came with the DVD-RAM drive)

One idea I can think of is, open the ISO with WinRAR/WinZip/7Zip or any ZIP utility you have. Extract the contents somewhere and burn those directly to the DVD. It should work most likely, I think. Still, you might want to hunt a good, free burning application, if you want to play really safe.
