Google Picasa v3.9 Build 136.9
As a photo manager it is absolutely excellent, starting with the price. There is not much it cant or doesnt do. Its easy to configure, find pictures, group them, post them online (although Facebook posting could be added.) It integrates well with Photoshop to let you do advanced editing. Its fairly foolproof in that it always backs up pictures before saving them to disk. It keeps your original when doing crops and adjustments. It searches automatically on captions and on titles. There are really few cons and they arent worth mentioning. The only thing better is ThumbsPlus and its a bit of a resource hog in latest version, whereas Picasa starts up quick runs quick and does what you need.
