What is a Windows equivalent of CppCheck?

Question

I have an extreme problem.

I have been working on a game for about two years(20000+ lines of code), and Lately I have been noticing a ton of memory leaks. The problem is that I cannot track every single one of them since my game is way too big...

I have searched around and noticed that CppCheck would be useful in my situation, but the problem is that since I am using windows, i cannot use CppCheck(which is for linux only).

I am wondering if maybe there is a library or plugin that is CppCheck's equivalent for windows, or maybe a way to use CppCheck on windows instead.

All of the possibilities that I have come up with, along with solutions to other's problems(such as using smart pointers for std::deque and such) imply that my program is small or the more fitting: rewrite my entire program, something that I -really- do not want to do...

IDE: Code Blocks 10.05

Compiler: MinGW 3.81 GCC 4.4.1

CppCheck works on Windows too (check downloads on SourceForge). CppCheck is only a static check tool (it analyzes your source code to find some potential problems). In order to find real memory leaks it may be necessary to use some debugging tool that actually runs your code (look at Google's Dr. Memory for example).
