I'm not sure cause I don't use the program, so you really have to look into 
it... maybe from the site. But, unless someone is absolutely sure, I wouldn't 
guess that the duplicates are searched for using the file name. Other programs 
I have that check for duplicate images do a very thorough analysis. I can have 
two pictures, one being the original and the other with a different name and 
shrunk to a smaller size, and the programs will find them as being duplicates. 
Checking using the file name is not a good idea, especially since many digital 
cameras use the same naming sequence.

How does that check for duplicates, does it look for the name of the file or 
the actual picture itself?
