4DOS is a great tool, for far more than this little request, but it's
a complete replacement for COMMAND.COM, and may be more than you want
to get into.

I suggest Keith Ledbetter's SST (Supersonic Search Tool), version
5.3a.  It should be available on any of the Web's shareware search
sites.  Registration is merely $15, but there are no nag screens or
crippled features.

It will search for files older than X number of days, but I don't know
if it compares file times, or just file dates, to determine that. SST
will also start searches in a particular subdirectory (instead of the
entire disk), and can even search specified drive letters.  You can
specify a command line (with macros for inserting filenames and such)
to be run for each found file.

Good luck!
