Hi,

I've been asked to recommend a utility for checking the md5 checksums that
are published with each release.

Personally, I've used the 'md5sum' utility that comes with the cygwin
toolchain (*), however, installing cygwin just for this is a bit of an
overkill.

Fortunately, you don't have to look very far - there's a SourceForge project
that provides a Windows application for this specific purpose -MD5Summer:

"The MD5summer is a GUI application for generating and verifying MD5
checksums of files. Entire directory structures can be summed recursively.
Input and output files are compatible with those of the GNU md5sum
application."

https://sourceforge.net/projects/md5summer/

	enjoy,

		Rony
