Windows Picture & Fax Viewer gone!!!

In XP, with an animated gif, one can right-click | Preview and the gif
displays and animates.

In Vista, the "new" Windows Photo Gallery just shows the static gif
non-animating (and also demonstrates other head-shakingly idiotic nonsense).

How does one get rid of that Windows Photo Gallery crap and put Picture &
Fax viewer on Vista?????

Thanks

I really doubt you can, as it was never a standalone program. If you really
want to see animated gifs, you can always drag them onto IE, or even
associate IE with .gif files.

Thanks Dave. I have IrfanView, but I like the fast-opening-display by
Preview with Picture & Fax Viewer. I make animated gifs for training
presentations, and like a quick check.

In Redmond, they don't listen to our screams.
