Been a user of Irfanview for over a decade now I came across one problem that has plagued me since day dot and honestly I am jack of it!
The problem is not been able to view/slideshow imaged in archives. Honestly it finally wore away at my nerves and thought "For goodness sakes, for sure there is a plugin or an option to get this working." so I read these forums only to find that there are people who would oppose this feature! I mean WTF thats seriously backwards. I mean do the people who don't want this feature also hate how mankind invented the wheel? or Fire?
Either way, its something that many people would have expected such a widely used image viewer to of had for years now and the fact that it doesn't seems to me to be crazy.
Its not that hard to decompress files on the fly by the way, I have seen it way back in the Commodore Amiga days, check out things like the amiga library packs (sorta like codecs) XAD and XFD.
Even powerpacker decompressed on the fly. Hell you could compress exe's with it and they still ran so...
