Nero eating memory?

Before I start, here are my system specs:

p4 2.4 GHZ 800mhz front side bus
512MB PC3200 (DDR400) RAM
120 GB Maxtor ATA133 HDD
Plextor 40/12/40 burner
Win2k fresh install with all latest drivers/updates/firmware/bios/etc.


Recently installed Nero 6. When attempting to copy data/audio CD, I notice that my memory is being eaten up completely. I can't even open internet explorer without serious lag and greatly decreased burn speed. I know that generally its not a good idea to multi-task when burning, but with a system like mine this shouldn't be a problem. Pre-burn, I have about 400 MB (out of 512 MB) physical RAM free. As soon as I start burning, without running any other tasks, I literally drop down to 3 MB free RAM. I know this is not right. Is anyone else having the same experience? Is this a common thing with the new Nero?

The main reason I ask is because I need to use Nero to copy audio cd's because it allows me to access the FreeDB service from which I can add on CD-Text to each audio cd. Is there any other copying software that allows access to CD-Text adding through internet access? Please let me know, or if there is a way to fix this Nero memory problem.

Any and all help would be appreciated.
