it is called faststone photo resizer... i think it is freeware with a purchase option, i installed it on my Vista OS without problems...link below

I can recommend the main base program from these developers. FastStone Image Viewer! This is the best program of this type. I have been using it for 8 years.

FastStone Image Viewer is a fast, stable, user-friendly image browser, converter and editor. It has a nice array of features that include image viewing, management, comparison, red-eye removal, emailing, resizing, cropping, retouching and color adjustments

And only 6 megabytes !!! No Adware. No Spyware. Free for Home Users
