    Image viewer for rar files?

    Hi all,

    Does anyone know of a quality image viewer that can cycle through rar files? I have quite a few jpg archives and I don't want to waste time and hard drive space by having to decompress them before viewing. I've found a few (ivanview, inzomia) but I'm a little weary of trying them because they don't seem too popular. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.


    Thanks!

    Irfanview is not popular? News to me.

    Apparently, ivanview is not a typo. It is a payware program that is a lot like the freeware irfanview, neither of which will browse a rar file.

    Do ya think that "Ivanview" was created to take advantage of address field typos? It's probably based on Irfanview code too. Scummers.

    Well, the name is definitely an encroachment, so unless this is a sheep in wolf's clothing, I would suspect similarities at the code level as well.
    To their credit, it does seem more polished than Irfanview.
