Picture Viewers

[Hague2]

Hello, I wasn't sure were to post this question, so here goes:

I believe there is suppose to be a simple picture viewer program that comes
with Windows. In my Windows XP I don't see any picture program in the
Programs Menu under Start. However, going to Windows to double-click on a
picture will bring up a program. In my case I get Microsoft Office Picture
Manager. Other people I know get Windows Picture & Fax Viewer or Microsoft
Picture Studio.

If there is one Viewer Picture Program that is packaged with Windows, what
is it?
Is your only choice to go through Windows and double-click on the file to
open the picture program?
Is the picture program that opens the default and you have choices?
Can the program be placed in the Programs Menu under Start?
What is the easiest method, for beginners, that you recommend accessing the
pictures for emailing?

Thank you,
Nita
