I'm always wonderind. What are those MD5 hashes below the files (downloads.php) for? I'd really thank an answer. THANKS!!!They are supposed to be for you to check if the file you downloaded is the file hosted on the server (it was not broken, nor replaced on the wire). If you have a program, which can calculate the md5sum of the file you downloaded, you can check if the two hashes match. Regards, Gabor Hojtsy
