I am running 4.4 and have attemted to verify checksum on a few ISO iamges. One of which being 4.4-install.iso and the results are always wrong but to make matters worse each time I run md5 on the same file I get a different result? Thanks, M. Callihan P.S. Sorry for the HTML but it appears that hotsmell does not allow text anymore? _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp.
