    Anyone know of any free sequential image viewer program?

    1. NOT Windows Fax/Image viewer or slideshow

    2. Small memory footprint (my current program uses 8MB)

    3. Fast loadup and transitions

    4. Unicode support is a plus

    5. Vista compatibility is a must

    6. Must be able to read within zip archives of all types and folders, preferably also zip archives within archives

    7. Some sort of algorithm for finding next chapters for a list of folders/zips w/ sequentially named titles

    8. Doesn't need write-capability. In fact, I'd prefer if the only thing it could do was view images full-screen, so as to better fulfill #2 above.

    9. Being able to view videos or preview them is okay, but not necessary - can't freeze when video files are in same directory with images though.

    10. Should not have a media-organizing feature. It'd only bloat up the program. I have other methods of organizing my pictures and media.

    I'm currently using Hamana ( http://miyano.s53.xrea.com/), which does most of the above, but it's also not really in development anymore.

    Any suggestions? Thanks

    Edit: I've been looking at Irfanview. I like it at first glance, but it can't read compressed archives that I can see. Is there such an option, or a plugin that allows it to do so?
