Today i will give you some info about the two most used files for checkin MD5, MD4 and CRC32 checksums(hashes).As you might know the leaked builds for Windows 7 are infected with Trojans and malwares and it becomes necessary to check the MD5 check sums before downloading the torrent.So i give you two apps to choose from.One is ‘MD5 Checker’ and the other is ‘Marixio File Checksum verifier’.
MD5 Check is a small tool that will help you create and check MD5 checksums.An MD5 checksum (hash) is usually displayed as 32 hexadecimal characters, one for each 4 bits of the checksum.With MD5 Check you will be able to verify the data integrity and authenticity of any file and compare the output data with any given one.You can download it here.

Anyway, Marxio File Checksum Verifier looks excellent – calculate not only MD5 checksum, but also more and more popular sha-256 or sha-512 – some websites only present sha1 checksum, so Marxio FCV is excellent as it’s portable, one file program. Btw, FCv is not freeware, but donationware, but I think it’s the same anyways.
