CopyPasteKiller - Free Code Similarity Finder

So I just published CopyPasteKiller, a free tool that helps .Net developers working with large code bases find all the places that another developer used the time honored practice of Copy-Paste Inheritance. Or sometimes the code base is so big that it is easy duplicate functionality without actually copying and pasting. Either way, CopyPasteKiller is a fast way to hunt down similar chunks of code so that they can be refactored.
