Wow, no faith from the peanut gallery. If the file is signed (something else we calculate during build when referencing the file) we will use the signature of the file not the hash. If the signature on the file changed in between the point that you built and the user downloaded the actual file, chances are the user has a file you don't want them installing. <smile/>
