And one under-documented free (but not open source) app is ERViewer from ERDAS. It can read ALG files (and ERS files with algorithms) and save the images as geotiffs.

Thanks Brent.

I got the ers files in but not the ecw. I have some dll's that suggest I should be able to bring in an ecw but so far its not working.

Have you installed the ECW SDK from ERDAS, and put the required ECW DLL's in place? I don't recall you mentioning that step in earlier posts.
Here's more detailed instructions:
http://www.qgis.org/wiki/OSGeo4wSetup#Installing_support_for_raster__.2A.ECW_.28ERMapper.29_and_.2A.sid_.28MrSid.29_formats
I'll keep working at it.

Brett,

Do Layer -> Add Raster Layer, then select "All Other Files" in the open
file dialog, then select your .ers file.

Brent,
I'm very keen to give this a try. How do I access the GDAL programs? Is
this part of Grass? Can it be accessed via Qgis?

Brett,

   GDAL supports ERS files natively (with some restrictions) so I
expect the gdal.dll delivered with QGIS will work.  GDAL has no
support of ALG files (or algorithms in ERS files).  I see that the
QGIS Enceladus install incluses the ERMapper ECW dlls so you should be
able to open those as well (but I haven't tried it yet).

For Mac OS X, http://www.kyngchaos.com/software/frameworks offers
     support for GDAL with ECW, and QGIS. Greg
