what you did works fine but only for users that don't know the existence of nero.if you have permissions to a user(say Power Users group) to access the folder of nero in the Program Files folder then anone can execute it from the cmd or even browse it.
To be sure go to ahead folder in Program Files and set the permissions so that only you have full control and other users have none.
i think that should work unless you don't want to bother if the users of your computer won't have a clue of how to run the program if it's not listed in the startup menu.
