.NET Lines of Code Counter

Question

I was wondering if anyone could recommend a good LOC counter for .NET projects (web, windows service, etc.)? Some features that I'm looking for include:

• Ability to export results to Excel or something similar (not just PDF as I may want to work with the data);
• Create several counter projects (e.g. project 1 includes .NET projects A,B and C, and project 2 includes .NET projects D, E and F);
• Be able to track changes to projects over time;
• Easily weed out bogus files (like VSS files, csproj files, .user files, etc.);
• Count code against TFS, VSS , file system;
• Ideally, I'd like to be able to point the app to a .sln file and have it import all projects, instead of me having to add each project one by one;
• Include JavaScript files (and ideally exclude comments, but that's a nice-to-have);
• EDIT Freeware would be preferred but not a show-stopper;
• EDIT Support for .NET 3.5 and 4 is required.

I saw a few older questions along the same line, but was hoping for some updated tools that support various types of .NET projects (not just web projects, for example).

Thanks in advance!

Visual Studio 2008 and 2010 has a code analyzer built in. In the solution explorer right click on the project and pick Calculate Code Metrics. You can read more here http://blogs.msdn.com/b/habibh/archive/2009/10/27/how-to-count-the-lines-of-code-loc-in-your-application-using-visual-studio.aspx
