The filename is always the same,  and the ftp software sets the creation
dates and mod dates correctly.   Therefore we can't use any CFFILE-type
functionality

What we'll see is when you go into the station's webcam page,  you can see
the current show host as he/she does his/her show - with an image captured
and uploaded to the site in the last minute.    But on some mornings (no
pattern we can pin down)  we'll go into the site and see the overnight
host, who finished his show hours ago.    That image will have a create
time of a minute ago, and a time stamped on the image of a minute ago.   So
our question is,  when did the webcam software stop snapping new images?

To see what I mean, see http://hawkesburyradio.com.au/index.cfm?pid=111538
-  everything's working fine at the moment.   But if it wasn't, we'd find
about 10am tomorrow, this same image with 10am time stamped on it.   But of
course we know that this guy's home and in bed asleep because he finishes
his show at 5.30am.

So we need to be able to compare the actual content of the images somehow.
 If the content is identical (we know the mod dates and creation dates will
be different) then the software has hanged.
