anyone got a good comparison program?

[lotsofplants]

So, I was curious. Anyone know of a program which can compare computer files to see if they are identical? I'm looking for ones that do the following comparisons:

-- will locate files with identical date/time/name but different locations
-- will find files which have identical date/time but different names
-- can compare two files to see if their contents are identical, even if the names or date/time are different.

I'm betting that the first is fairly easy, the last hardest. Suggestions, preferably for things which are cheap or free?

The diff (or windiff) program does the first and last in its sleep, the second is actually hardest. The windiff program is essentially a free, graphical version of the unix comandline tool, diff, and probably your best bet, unless you feel like perusing a commandline.
