There's actually multiple sites which lists alot of altcoins that are using the same algorithm as bitcoin (SHA256).

One of those sites is http://altcoins.com/

Altcoins using SHA-256, the same hashing algorithm as Bitcoin.

NMC – Namecoin
PPC – Peercoin
DVC – Devcoin
TRC – Terracoin
BTE – Bytecoin
IXC – Ixcoin
I0C – I0coin
FRC – Freicoin
XJO – Joulecoin
ZET – Zetacoin
ASC -AsicCoin
DEM – Deutsche eMark
UNO – Unobtanium
PT – Platinum Coin
BLC – Blakecoin
RKC – Reikicoin
TIT – Titcoin

Now there's probably way more unpopular altcoins out there using the same algorithm, but these are listed as the best known ones. (Although i myself find these pretty unpopular already aswell..  Roll Eyes)
