Lots. Breezebrowser is one of the cheapest. C1 probably the most expensive.
Photoshop + Adobe Bridge is my favorite. Google for "RAW Converter" and
you'll find more than you'll likely ever want.

www.infanview.com - small, fast, and free. Be sure to download and
install the plugins as well for .CR2 support. Default setting loads
only the preview JPG that's embedded in the RAW file, but there's an
option in the settings to load the full RAW file instead.

Depends on what you want to do with it and how your camera is set up, I
guess... if it's storing a small, low-res JPG with the RAW, you'd
probably want to load the original RAW file... best thing in this case
would probably be to set it to embed a large, hi-res JPG with the .CR2;
IrfanView's default setting will just load that and it can then be
re-saved separately (manually or via batch process).
