... And find that your browser opens a new window every time you click to display a new jpeg, do the following ...
From Windows Explorer, click on "View"
Choose "Options"
Choose "File Types"
Scroll down to entry for JPG or JPEG
Double Click on JPG
In the window that comes up, under "Actions", double click on the word "open"
In the box labelled "Application used to perform action" add -nohome after the closing inverted commas (which will come after Iexplore or Netscape). Leave a space between the inverted commas and -nohome.
OK your way out.
This will stop you browser from opening another window every time you click on another jpeg (which was driving me crazy) and will also stop Netscape "freezing" on the first jpeg that was opened.
Interestingly, Norton A-V didn't correct this situation (although it did actually recover a few of the jpeg files that had been overwritten - which impressed me).
Took me about two hours to work this one out ... Bah!
