WIN XP filmstrip thumbnail generator? Windows bug?

This is a relly really strange thing.

I've donwloaded a picture from the internet (a jpg), with some people on it, but the faces were hiden with white squares (probably made with some picture editor), the funniest thing is that in the windows filmstrip preview mode, i can see the faces (and all the parts of the picture covered with white color) perfectly! nothing is covered in the thumbnail preview, however when i open the actual picture with Corel, my browser or even MSPaint i see the picture the way it should be (whith the faces hidden with white marks).

So i guess, that the windows filmstrip thumbnail generator uses some kind of sotware to generate these thumbnails that somehow waves this colour on it (probaly some mas this software doesn't recognize?) and shows the actual image, i dont know really whats happening, but i want to know what software uses windows to generate the thumbnail so i can see the picure full-size with it :)Start Free Trial
