Hi!
It appears a bug was found with TIFF images and preview functionality:
I use MS Windows Remote Desktop Connection with 8 bit color option (for slow connections). When I click right button on TIFF image my explorer.exe process crashes. This does not reproduce with e.g. JPGs.
I think something is wrong with XnView Preview feature.
I tested this case using RDP 32 bit color mode - nothing bad happens and everything works great.
PS not only right click leads to explorer.exe crash - even <Shift> + <Delete>
I did not test the behaviour when XnView is removed from system. But I think XnView is the only application which works with screen output besides windows.
