Short description
It is a GUI utillity calculating MD5 checksums, working with the standart linux and DOS .md5 files.
All though there are a couple of other implementations available on the internet, I felt they didn't really fit my needs.
My version :
- Runs on Windows 95, 98, ME, NT, 2000, XP (only tested with Windows 98 SE, and Windows XP Pro SP1)
- Takes advantage of the modern features in windows, and is therefore multithreaded.
- Uses the fast and reliable RFC 1321 standard MD5 algorithm.
- Can edit the .md5 files, so you can add and delete lines in it.
- Has a built-in MB/sec meter, just for fun.

Version 0.70 - Currently the candidate for final release
Known problems
- It can't really handle misformattet md5 files. It just crashes.
- If you close the application while processing, it crashes in Windows 9x with fatal exception in VXD-VWIN32(04+00001732).
- On large files (> 2GB) its behaviour is unpredictable.
