This is very useful when you want to distributes/mirrors files over Internet. | QUOTE | | MD5 digests are widely used in the free software world to provide assurance that a downloaded file has not been altered. By verifying a published MD5 sum's PGP signature, and then comparing a publicized MD5 sum with the checksum of a downloaded file, a user can have considerable confidence that the file is the same as that released by the developers. This protects against Trojan horses and computer viruses being added to the software surreptitiously. Checking a downloaded file against its MD5 sum does not only detect files purposefully altered in a malicious manner; it will also recognize a corrupt or incomplete download. |

Good guide.. I just wanna add another app for checking file integrity, digestIT 2004, the software that provides the simple "right-click and hash".  Right-click on a file... and verify a message digest, or...   compute a message digest. |
