Checksums

What software do you all use to verify checksums of ISO's that you've downloaded? I found links to md5summer[^] - anyone use it/heard of it? Any other programs?

A bottle a night isn't alcoholism - it's persistence! -- A coworker, jokinglyYes, I know one! My tool ReHash v0.1, which I released a few minutes ago. http://rehash.sourceforge.net[^] Currently it supports Adler32, CRC-16, CRC-16-CCITT, CRC-16-XMODEM, CRC-32, CRC-64, ED2K, ELF-32, FCS-16, FCS-32, FNV-32, FNV-64, GHash-3, GHash-5, GOST-Hash, several HAVALs, MD2, MD4, MD5, RipeMD-120, RipeMD-160, SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-384, SHA-512, Size64, Tiger and XUM32. Feel free to download and try it. It's the first unstable version, but all algorithms seem to pass their test vectors. Any feedback? :-D Dominik
_outp(0x64, 0xAD);
and__asm mov al, 0xAD __asm out 0x64, al
do the same... but what do they do?? ;) (doesn't work on NT) -

Interesting. Do you have a comparison of the relative merits of the algorithms?
Currently no concrete ones, sorry. But you can try
rehash -bench
to start a small benchmark. This benchmark will show you how many bytes per second the algorithms can hash on your machine. :) Dominik
