[WEB4LIB] Quicktime on Win98, 2K, XP

[Steve Mackey]

Another great free-ware (non-commercial) program that allows you to view lots of different image types (some audio as well), is
IrFanView.

It's small, and simple to use...

Cheers,
Steve

We've been considering installing QuickTime on machines with the
above-referenced operating systems so that users can view TIFF files
from the US Patent Office.  It apparently installs some ActiveX
controls that conflict with our security settings on browsers.

Since we're not expert on ActiveX stuff, but have heard various horror
stories, we'd be interested in learning about how any of you who
already have TIFF viewers on public machines evaluate the pros and
cons of Alternatiff, QT, and others for such purpose.

Please limit replies to those who run Win98, 2K, and/or XP in public
environments.  No need to tell me about *ix, Mac, and other stuff,
since they're totally irrelevant to my environment.

thanks

dan
