Default Need software to compare pictures to find duplicates

Hi,

One program I know of is "FC-WILD5.ZIP" (freeware). This program reports
which files are the same, but doesn't care about their filenames. Note:
Although this is a DOS program, you can use it at Command Prompt in WinXP, or
Dos Prompt in Win98.

I have about 800 wallpaper pictures that I collected from different
sites. When I view them I occasionally see the same picture twice. I
know there are some duplicates, because different sites change the
names of them. Aside from manually trying to find them using
thumbnail images, is there some sort of software (prefer freeware)
that I can download that will find duplicates based on the file size
or the actual content of the .jpg image, even of the names are
different? Most are the same screen size, so they should be identical
except for the name. One site even has duplicates on their site,
which are the same picture with different names. Not to mention I had
to rename many of them, because how many times can a picture be called
(for example), "dog.jpg". Generally how I cope with those, as I save
them, I'll rename them either as dog1.jpg, dog2.jpg, dog3.jpg ......
OR something like collie-dog.jpg. dog-poodle.jpg, black-dog.jpg,
dog_with_toys.jpg, etc.....
