Sorry for the late reply.

I've found "The Font Thing" to be an excellent utility. You can download it 
from http://www.download.com

And let me put a lame tip after that:

<tip type="managing fonts" author="Madhu Menon">

Designers often need to keep an array of typefaces at their disposal. But 
the more fonts you keep installed, the more system resources you chew up. 
Keep only your essential typefaces and store the rest elsewhere. Using a 
font viewing tool like The Font Thing or MyFonts, you can then quickly 
preview the rest and install them only when you need them.
