I actually didn’t know there was a tool that enables animated thumbnails. I
did a quick search on Google, but did not find anything.
Can you install the same plugin as you did in XP? (Although I’m not sure if
it works in Vista)
If you only want it so you can quickly play animated GIF files, you could
try Irfanview. That’s a picture viewer like the viewer in Windows. It’s a bit
less user friendly, but can handle a lot more file types, and can play
animated GIF files.
