Poikosoft-Easy CD extractor:"out of memory"

I just installed this software and am trying to convert some tracks on a CD to MP3. It did a couple OK but now I'm getting "Extraction failed- out of memory"....My Windows 'system info' sez " 84% of 224Mb of Ram is free ". On the other hand the ASUS mobo utility says (the opposite?) "Physical memory usage-75% of 228 MB." There is nothing running except Explorer, Systray, and Norton AV (NOT updating) I have tried other CDs ...same story.
Tried selecting one track only, not many at once- no help.
Went to the Poikosoft site - they suggest deselecting "auto insert notification" but it didn't help. Only about 10% of the C drive is used.
Whats going on ?? Theres been over 3 Million downloads of this so its obviously me and not the software. Thanks,
Chris.

I'd just go get CDEX and uninstall Poikosoft (which I've never heard of until now anyhow)

Thanks guys,
This looks a lot more straightforward. Hope you get some snow for the Holidays instead of the constant rain I remember from when I was up there Jim.
Chris.

Thanks, but so far, one day of rain in Dec., and now it's just cloudy and dry, very dry. Ski hills are mostly shut, except for the very top of the mountains, there isn't even any snow. Going to be a dry, brown (green?) Xmas
