PcExpert Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 Hi all, I was wondering if there's any way to check the MD5 or CRC32 checksum from a file to be sure there has not been tampered with. For example: I have an update exe to check for updates for the program, but people could easily replace the exe by an empty textfile (renamed to update.exe for example) to bypass the update. So is there any way to check this? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monoceres Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 Just do a simple search next time, there are lots of different checksum algo's floating around the forums.This one is for example really nice http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index.ph...6976&hl=md5 Broken link?

PcExpert Posted March 22, 2009 Author Share Posted March 22, 2009 Thanks Monoceres, I tried the MD5 function earlier, which I forgot to tell. Now I tried the CRC32 function and it works like a charm! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
