Has your Explorer stopped showing you pictures when you view files in the thumbnail mode? As in, the files ending in .jpg are no longer being shown as pictures but as placeholder icons?

Then put this text into a blank file named shellex.reg:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.jpg\ShellEx]

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.jpg\ShellEx\{BB2E617C-0920-11d1-9A0B-00C04FC2D6C1}]
@="{7376D660-C583-11d0-A3A5-00C04FD706EC}"

Then Merge that file into your registry. Apparently it's possible for the Explorer to get confused about how it's supposed to these things. According to Microsoft that registry key will fix it.
