“Kana Checksum Verifier is a Windows’ program that can be used to verify the file by calculating its CRC32 checksum or MD5 checksum. To calculate the checksum of the file, either drag and drop the file into the program window, or use the browse for file button, and then select the checksum required. For easier access, it can be easily integrated with Explorer, so you can verify the file by right click that file and select Kana Checksum from the popup menu.”

“This program adds another page to the file property sheet (when you right-click on a file and then choose Properties). On this page you can find the checksum(s) for the file in question. Supported checksum algorithms are:
¤ CRC16 – not frequently used, quite weak algorithm
¤ CRC32 – common, used by several compression and file splitting applications
¤ MD5 – crypto strength algorithm, very common in the Unix world
¤ SHA1 – even stronger than MD5, but less used”
