Hi
I share your opinion, but as you probably red in my last posting the
available MD5 implementations are not performing well enough for using
them. I used the RFC reference implementation coded in JScript and its
really slow, so I decided to just use an external program which works
really fast as its written in C. Using an external program is easy, as
we can use any kind of checksum checking when its available as command
line program. I will try your link, and report my opinions.
Despite this, I don't understand why windows still doesn't have any
native MD5 implementation. Any unix has it on board.
Maybe someone wants to port wpkg to C# which has an MD5CryptoProvider
as I've seen on the web...
Greets,

3. You can use md5SumOk() function now to check MD5 checksums

change MD5PROG and MD5PROGARGS.
This patch is very interesting, however I would like to see it
indepentant from external commands. There is a BSD-licensed javascript
md5 implementation out there, (see
http://pajhome.org.uk/crypt/md5/md5src.html) maybe we can incorporate
that into wpkg in some way?
