The Plagiarism Checker – http://www.dustball.com/cs/plagiarism.checker/
Paste in your paper or upload it as a Word document. The engine checks each paragraph and rules it as OK or possibly plagiarized. If the ruling is possibly plagiarized, a link is returned to google web page results that may be the source of the plagiarized content. The final result at the bottom of the page indicates whether or not the page is believed to be plagiarised.
