See http://www.forensicswiki.org/wiki/Thumbs.db for info about possibilities to look inside Thumbs.db files.
Also http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_thumbnail_cache .

Cheers,
Peter

Added - I just tried vinetto which is mentioned on the above links. Picked a Thumbs.db at random and to my amazement it recovered 11 thumbnails. As they are so small - 65x96 - I'm not sure what use they are, but still...

This software also claims to display Thumbs.db file http://www.mitec.cz/wfa.html

vinetto: wiki mentions that a python environment is needed. What on earth is that? Perhaps it crushes the info out. ;D
WFA: has anyone actually succeeded in loading files from a db cache?

Python is a programming language, and presumably vinetto uses it. It's available free for Windows - see http://www.python.org/download/windows/ for example.

Yes.
Cheers,

PS - The file only contains thumbnails of images, not the original images themselves.
