open it in IE, from file open, or you can right click on the file and open with IE.
Other than that get a free trial of something like Paint Shop Pro or Photoshop, PSP being the cheapest. This should open any image file you throw at it.

You will also be able to convert it to gif or lossless jpg format via any of those programs.
Also try opening it with Word, that might work just as a quick view.

im having a similar problem but on a Terminal Server environment, some users can see Jpegs and others cannot. I've tried opening it up in picture and fax viewer, internet explorer, office picture manager, with no joy. any suggestions?
