Hash Slinging Slasher

It's a simple way to compare files. Just drag a file into the left side of this Widget, and another into the right side, and it will tell you if the files are different or not based on their MD5 hashes. It lights up yellow when it's checking the files, then it will light up green if they match or red if they don't.

Loosely based off of the Hasher Lite Widget by Dave McWhirter.

It seems like the yahoo widgets v4+ doesn't include the md5 program it used to, it changed, so this widget won't be able to use.

deena, do you have Konfabulator installed?

Felix, I am aware of MD5 collisions, but aren't they pretty rare?

Because of a flaw in MD5, this Widget will sometimes report two different files as the same. See http://www.cits.rub.de/MD5Collisions/
