Converting *.mix files

My previous computer had Picture-It! on it. My new computer, with XP,
doesn't. I have a number of *.mix graphics files that I need to access, but
don't want to purchase Picture-It! Does anyone know of any programs that
will read (and convert) *.mix files? I have PSP as my main graphics program,
but it doesn't appear to accept mix files. Help, please. Thanks.
 
Place following code in a text document and rename it to a imageviewer.hta (it's also attached). The Win 98 thumbnail viewer (it's in XP because older programs use it) can show mix files.

"imageviewer.hta" "filename.mix"

NOTE: The quotes are important. The Program name MUST be quoted (unusual) and also the file name (nothing unusual about this). If your files are a particular size you can specify the size of the image by altering the <object line below to (say to 640x480)
<object height=640px width=480px

objThumbnail.displayfile(cmdLineArray(3))
