I haven't used Nero for years. The main thing I used to use it for was writing files to CDs (either as a backup or for transporting files) and burning ISO files. I've replaced the latter with ImgBurn and the other I've not had a reason to do for a long time.

Yeah Nero used to be my #1 burning app. Then they decided that they should include every piece of software known to man in there.
I now use the built in stuff in 7 and server 2008 to burn ISO's and data discs.

It also installed its own video/audio filters which I'm sure took over from the default ones. Too much crap in the end so I haven't installed it for a long time.

I've got it installed on a couple of pc's, and use it very occasionally for burning cd's and dvd's (mostly I use Brasero, because mostly I work on linux). For that it (nero) seems ok, haven't tried all the other rubbish that comes with it (and I generally only install the minimum set to begin with).

That sounds more likely to be a shell extension than a file association.
Have you tried something like
Autoruns
to see what shell extenstions are configured?
