Its key features are find duplicate files in any drives, folders and neighborhood computers, search similar and duplicate files by CRC, name, size and their combinations, search a file in results by inputting part of the file name, find duplicates for a specified file, check file similarity by CRC, name, size and their combinations, and Rename selected duplicate files, move them to another folder, open the folder they are located.
Allows multiple folders, looks like the results are sorted in reverse folder order*, so this gives the opportunity to specify where files are deleted from.
*ie last one on the folders list is first on the results list.
Cons
Could do with a progress indicator when deleting files, program appears to be asleep during this period.

Worth 8 quid + VAT!<br /><br /><span class='notifyMsg'> Updated </span>on Oct 10, 2012<p/>After a fair bit of use I've had some BSODs when exiting the program.
Deleting files to recycle bin is very slow, it deletes one file a time rather than doing a multiple delete for the whole batch.
should be listed under shareware
