I was just testing the picture quality of photos you can download from free flickr accounts (it's rubbish!) using nero photosnap viewer..except when I moved the 'rolly thing' on the mouse it moved to loads of other images off the internet - some of them I'd seen before, such as one of my favourites on flickr, the casualty webpage viewer and some butterfly wings off a google image search, but a lot of them I don't remember ever having seen before! What's going on? Have these somehow been downloaded to my computer - I know I haven't manually downloaded any of them apart from the one I tried off my flickr account, now I'm worrying that my computer is downloading images off the internet without me knowing!!
If anyone has a clue what it is, please could you tell me how to stop it? Thankyou!!

May not be downloaded to your machine, but Nero may have stored links to images embedded in pages you might have visited for a few seconds. I'm not positive about this, I don't know how it works, but I would think it was a bad feature of the program if you couldn't stop this...have a look through the menus to see if you can find something (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Ahh! That doesn't sound too good!
Thanks - I'll have to look at it and see if I can figure something out! :s

Well storing links is a lot better than storing photos!
