In XP, like you apparantly use, you can choose IE (viewing) or even Paint
(no animated gif's)
The windows standard tools are very minimal, so get yourself a fine free
photo viewer / editor /enhancer / converter on:

One can associate .gifs with any picture viewer. Lots of folks just use
IE tho.

Thanks for the replies. Although IE is a bit basic it is still better than
Quick Time . Bob

And both are so far down in the mud compared to Irfanview (
http://www.irfanview.com ) that it's not even funny.

Try Irfanview - it can load and resize a picture before IE even does
the "Wha? Someone wants me? Oh, crap, gotta wake up then" schtick <B-)
