If you open mystery files in IrfanView, then - at least if it's one of
the common image formats, I'm not sure if it now does it for other types
- if it is a type it recognises, it will popup something like "xxx is a
.jpg file with incorrect extension. Rename?" (Even if you say no [in
which case it doesn't rename!], it still _displays_ them.)
Hmmmmmm, I never knew that was possible. I'll have to try it. Seems
easier than using the Hex Editor. With the Hex Editor, I still dont know
which .jpg I found, till I open it. Much of the time they are something
useless like a facebook icon or advertisment.
I have always used Acdsee for image viewing, but I have installed and
occasionally used Infranview.
