Binaries and MD5 hash

I would like to investigate using freenet or a variant hacked by me to 
keep some of my Pirate Party communications at least nominally secure.

I downloaded a binary installation file from the site, but was unable 
to find an MD5 hash associated with it. File listing (in Windows) is as 
following:

10/26/2015  11:18 PM        18,053,944 FreenetInstaller-1470.exe

The MD5 hash is d47b1494564e98a5d772477fb8967828 as calculated by my 
own MD5 utility and checked by onlinemd5.com 
(D47B1494564E98A5D772477FB8967828).

I found a hash for a file with the same name on another site, but that 
hash differs from the one from my file. Is that the correct md5 hash for 
that file?

Do you have some other way of validating a file or is perhaps the 
typical way of getting the files on freenet itself?

Please advise.

P.S. If, for some reason, you don't have an md5 utility already, my MD5 
code is here: http://toogles.sourceforge.net/md5.php -- it is vanilla 
ANSI C and should compile anywhere with any reasonably modern C 
compiler. One caveat: It assumes little-endian format such as is found 
on Intel/AMD x86 CPUs.
