Just a note -- I've used all the Windows GUI CVS clients and the only
one I'd recommend is Tortoise CVS.  It's the no-contest cock of the walk
in my opinion.

http://www.tortoisecvs.org

It doesn't come with a difference editor, but you can plug one in.  I
highly recommend Araxis Merge.  It's not free, but it's worth paying for.
I've never seen its equal.
