I was asked my opinion of that program. I don't know enough about it to give an opinion. I heard when it went to a free DL it had spyware attached to it by Google.

Anyone know? I just suggested the Irfan Thumbviewer and told me to make sure to not install the google bar.

I like Picasa and use it frequently. I cannot remember if it had anything attached with it or not. If it did, it would have been the Google Toolbar. You can always install it without, I am sure that it will give you the option.

Picasa is a free photo viewing/orginizing program from google.
I have had it and like it. I dont remember any spyware attached. The only thing i dont like about it is that it doesnt work with Novell Network systems to find photos on the network, which we have at work

at home though it is good.

Personally, I never liked Picasa because you have to organize everything into it's own categories to view it. I prefer XnView (http://www.xnview.com/), even over IrfanView Thumbnail viewer. Just go to the folder with your images, click and open. It's the fastest picture thumbnail viewer I find.
