If it does the "converting" bit, it means it's turning the files (MP3's) into an Audio CD, like any album you'd buy from a music shop. The very reason it's doing this is because you're using WMP9 to write the CD.

In order to put just the MP3's onto the CD you should right-click the file(s) you want on a CD and choose Send To>CD Drive (X:) [where X is the drive letter of your CD-Writer. You'll get a balloon saying "You have files waiting to be written to CD..." etc etc, clicking the ballon pops up a wizard and from there it's as simple as clicking "Next".

To summarise:

If you use WMP9 to record the CD it will record it in CD-Audio format allowing the disc to be played on any device capable of playing Audio CD's. (Discman, normal stereo etc)

The golden rule of computer problems - Reboot first, ask questions later. ;)
