ever since i installed nero 6.6.0.15a on my pc it shows following message in a dialog box, when i try to run Nero from start menu shortcut folder. The error doesnot occur when i execute nero from STARTSMART application.

"The Nero executable file was modified! Maybe your PC is infected by computer virus! We would recommend to use the latest antivirus software to check your PC. If no viruses are found , please do a full uninstall of Nero and reinstall fom the original Nero CD."

I have scanned my PC twice using AVG professional 7.0.338. and no viruses were found during scan. I also did full uninstall and then install of nero but it did'nt help.
I deleted the original nero.exe from the nero installation directory and then extracted the same file from nero setup package using winrar, and this time nero ran properly, but after reboot it again showed the same error.

does anybody have any idea why is this happening.
using winxp sp2 professional. pentium III 750 MHZ, ASUS CD Writer 52x, and nero 6.6.0.15

Uninstall Nero and delete all the folders related to Ahead/Nero. If you are comfortable with editing registry then clean registry entries as well. Now, reboot and reinstall.
During reinstall, Nero should ask you about its antivirus plugin. I don't know if it comes under typical install or not but you can trying going for an advanced or custom install (which ever is there). Don't install this plugin. This thing is the culprit for what you are experiencing. Also in msconfig, see if there is anything named "nerocheck.exe" starting at boot-up.
