subject: Re: dying burner?

-> Nope. Never even saw one. There was some discussion about
-> cleaning CD burner 'optics' in the W95 echo and, as I recall
-> it, the consensus was that the cleaning disk was a scam. It
-> would never touch the 'optics' since they don't drag on the CD
-> nor would they drag on the surface of a 'cleaner' disk. 

The ones I have seen, while of doubtfull value, had a small soft brush
inbedded in the Cleaning Disk and a program on the CD to move the Laser
lens over it. The soft brush stuck up enough the "Brush" across the
lens.
