Determining which AMD Prcessor I have

I have an old but in great condition socket 462 AMD CPU, fan, and heatsink. I just don't know what processor it is. There was a website that had photos of the various AMD processors which would help identify which CPU it is? Do any of you know that website? Is there anything else that can help my identify this without having to plug it into the comp?

UPDATE After I cleaned the thermal pad junk off of the CPU, I was able to determine, with the help of the websites you've listed, that it is an AMD Duron 1000 Mhz.

Thanks guys.
 
I guess the difficulty is the old thermal pad is junked up on the pink center of the chip. What is the best stuff to clean this off... It would probably be more informative as the pictures show

Isopropyl Alcohol and a q-tip.
