* ) Of course, theres also Paint.Net...
And MS has Groupshot (even for XP),
Photostory 3, and Windows Live Photo Gallery, which is a nice album too.
Google has Picasa...
Oh, you also forgot Photoshop... but then again that one is obvious, so I'll forgive ya.

* ) Another good one with some awesome effects (and FREE) is PhotoFiltre. Be sure to download the add-ins! This one rivals most of the photo aps in the $50-$200 range and is incredibly easy to use. As a Photoshop user I don't use it much, but I have recommended it to several others who have sent me their undying gratitude--definitely worth checking out if you need an ap and don't have the cash!

* ) What about Image Compressor?
It's been around for some time and has many users as well (according to download.com):
