Anyhow, thewre is usually some option for clearing the disk - either wiping the
directory or formatting the disk. If it isn't in Easy  CD Creator, look around
in the stuff supplied with the cd drive. I think Easy CD Creator is one of the
few packages that writes any way reliably using iso 9660 with Rock Ridge
extensions, but you don't have to use it to clean up the cdrw.

BTW, my experience with cdrws was that they were not worth the money, because
they were read poorly and the number of rewrites was very low.

This came up as the address to send to when I clicked

You erase them.

If you can't find the erase option in adaptec's software, then review the
help file that came with it.  It's not one of the friendlier software
packages out there.
