PW ISO md5sum

[Mark Carter]

I had been trying to download the Priceless Ware CD using BitTornado
(like Bittorrent) - but gave up on it due to slow download rates. So I
downloaded it from
http://mirrors.unoc.net/pricelessware/
instead.

Someone on this newsgroup expressed concerns about whether or not the
ISO image had been tampered with - so it seemed like a good idea to
run md5sum on it. Unfortunately, the official website:
http://www.pricelessware.org/2004/CD2004PL.htm
does not list the checksum for the ISO image. So what should it be?

You can mount the .iso image with Daemon tools and then verify the
checksums the way that the Pricelessware site describes. This is (or can
be)done even before burning the CD.
