The file rundll32 is a very common process used by Windows even in
earlier versions of Windows going way back. It is a multipurpose
"assist" file that many application use to do some tasks. If you open
Task Manager you'll see it, sometimes more than one instance of it
running in the processes tab. The file is part of the Windows OS
system and should not be deleted.
If you don't actually see problems with Nero I wouldn't worry about
it.
