Is there any way to diff two selected files from the context menu in Windows Explorer?

"Sounds like you need diff-ext!

This shell extension (diff-ext) makes
it possible to launch file comparison
tool for 2 or 3 files (depending on
the tool) in the same directory or
""save"" a file(s) for later comparison.
It acts as external most recent used
(MRU) file list for the comparison
tool.

I'm using it with KDiff3, but there are a number of other diff tools on the page it can be used with."

Beyond Compare and WinMerge can also do this if you enable Shell Integration during the installation.
