Replacement for XP image viewer

XP's default image viewer is a thorn in my side. It consistently causes my explorer to restart after closing it. It's the one black mark on an otherwise rock-stable system. I'm not all that interested in making it work either. So I'm looking for a freeware replacement with at least the same abilities. For example, the extreme zoom feature is something I would very much like to keep. While I could search on my own, I figure why bother trying to re-invent the wheel when someone else has already tried them and can point me to what I need. Anyone have anything for me?

re:

I installed FastStone and I'm likin' it. It does what I want it to do, it's blazing fast, and hasn't crashed anything once so far. Looks like I'm set.

I use a program Called Graphic Workshop PRO it has a lot of features. It's not free but $45 is not a lot eather

Adobe Photoshop Elements 4 with Raw?

As of today I am going to shoot Raw, to start with I am going to shoot Raw and Jpeg together. However I am a little confused about what I will need with Adobe Photoshop Elements 4, to open Raw and edit ect. and how to begin.

RE:

I'm not really familiar with Photoshop Elements, but I think I can describe the basic idea.

I think that people typically use Adobe's Camera RAW (or, if you want a free RAW editor, you might look into Pixmantec's Raw Shooter Elements). Once they've done the things they need to do with the RAW editor, they convert to a different file format, like TIFF or JPEG, and then import into Photoshop.
