Currently I'm using winmd5 v2.07 and wondering if there's any better alternatives out there. Which program do you all use and favour? I have ubuntu installed so it can be either a windows or linux program.

only one I've ever used is md5sum - http://downloads.activestate.com/contrib/md5sum/Windows/

I use 2hash, cuz it does md5s and sha1s at the same time!

2hash for Windows, compiled by me; it's available for lunix as well. It's a bit rough and ready (no help, doesn't handle bad inputs well, etc) but works fine.

For Windows I use some random md5.exe that I have, but I'd also recommend Nullriver's Winmd5sum - http://www.nullriver.com/products/winmd5sum - it is, or was, open source. It's really cool. Also, I hacked in SHA1 support into it; you can download my compiled version from here (I think I have the source if anyone cares).

so you don't use the one from trogutils?!

so you don't use the one from trogutils?!

haha I use that for command line stuff most of the time actually, yeh.

For single files I use HashTab.

Adds a tab to the file Properties menu, offering several hash outputs ..
