Thumbnail shell extension .NET

Does anybody know working thumbnail shell extension written in C# that works on winXP? Also if that doesn't exists does anybody kn开发者_运维技巧ow how to implement IExtractImage interface and all needed structs in C#? Thanks in advance.

NOTE: It can be done using using .NET 4 and all in one code framework provides samples for it but there is no samples for preVista oses.

The official line is that shell extensions should not be written in managed code.

For example, see what Raymond has to say. Or the official line from MSDN.

I wrote a tutorial on using the pre-vista thumbnail extension interface, IExtractImage. It's pretty difficult if you start from scratch. I only recommend this if you understand all the issues surrounding shell extensions in managed code.
