Can't comment about that calculator as I've never used it, but have you tried Carbs & Cals|? A lot of people rate it very highly including myself.

It looks good. I will compare some of the foods on it and let you know how accurate it is.

@numan43 sorry it took me so long but I finally got around to looking at the carb calculator and it is not accurate at all. Almost everything has lower carb counts than it should. I eat mainly broccoli and for 100gr it came back as 1.1 gr carbs which is way out, it is actually 4 gr. Fat secret is a good site for getting correct carb values but it is American so you have to remember to minus the fiber from the total carbs.
