Superfreakie:
Found this at LL. For those of us with huge collections stored on drives. Cathy Folder lister will also find some duplicates:

The other day I was looking for a program that can search and find duplicate files. I tried a few of these programs out, and found this one to be the easiest to use. A little bit of fiddling around with it and I think I found the best way to see where the dups are. My main issue in my archive is the folder names being different and having doubles of some of the shnids.
You can search your drives any which way you want, whether you want to search by .txt, .md5, .ffp; you can configure the search any way you like. Since it doesn't actually read the md5 and ffp, I found it easiest to just search .txt, and then group the results by folder name. I could just scroll the results looking for the same shnids with folder names that are different and delete the one I did not want. I did not try deleting the folder from the actual program, I just did that manually.

Just the other evening in the hub, someone was asking about any programs like this. I just passed the info along, I'm sure he'll be appreciative.
