Hey,

The method below works fine for me.  No extra dependencies.  Just
worked.  So, not at all helpful other than perhaps something wonky
with your java install?

Jake

import java.security.MessageDigest;

private static String md5Hex (String email) {
        try {
                MessageDigest md = MessageDigest.getInstance("MD5");
                // more stuff
        } catch (Exception ex) {
                /* No Action */
        }
}
