How do I burn an .img file onto a USB drive?

Question

I'm using Windows and trying to burn this Chromium OS nightly onto my USB drive.

Could someone recommend a program (freeware) that can "burn" an .img file onto a USB drive?

In Hexxeh's Chromium OS Flow instructions its recommended to use Image Writer which is here: https://launchpad.net/win32-image-writer. Theres more info on it here.

Its not for exactly the same release, but the image file will most likely be the same format.

	Does it recognize a USB key as a CD burner? – Assaf Aug 21 '10 at 6:50
