Default Looking for directory size utility.

I'm looking for a Windows XP utility for displaying the size of directories
and their contents. I've spent several hours using google to do a search.
But cannot find anything that is appropriate.

Hover over the folder and the folder size appears. Though it will only =
spend 2 secs calculating. Reshowing the tooltip will spend anither 2 =
secs calculating. The time is additive.

Also right click a folder, Properties. This takes as long as it takes =
but you can cancel.

Also=20
Dir foldername /s=20
shows the size.
