01 PROGRAM NAME: hkSFV
02 WARE DESCRIPTION: Freeware
03 OS-WIN: (Windows 95/98/ME/NT/2000/XP; Windows Server 2003): Windows
95/98/ME/NT/2000/XP (I'm guessing)
04 OS-NOTES: (IE only etc.)
05 OS-OTHER: (Mac OS X; Linux; Unix)
06 LANGUAGES: English
07 DESCRIPTION AND NOTES

hkSFV is the simply the easiest, most intuitive and automatic way to
create or check .SFV and .MD5 files. And, of course, it's completely
free. An .SFV file is a tiny list of files and CRCs, which allow you
to check to see if the files you have downloaded are exactly what you
are expecting. The CRC algorithm used in .SFV files allows you to see
if the file you have has been changed, even a single byte, since the
.SFV file was created. .MD5 uses the md5 algorithm to compute its
checksums, rather than the crc32 method used by .SFV. The md5
algorithm is almost as fast as crc32, but it is much more accurate at
detecting changes in files.
