I'd normally not post this type of shameless plug to a mailinglist, but as I think it's actually on topic this once, here goes:

Since I work with a mixed Windows/Unix environment I frequently do md5 (and sometimes sha1) full file checks of backups and what not. Finding the lack of built-in support for this in Windows annoying, I built a shell extension that is capable of calculating crc16, crc32, md5 and sha1 checksums, from the file properties sheet.

I have a version available on the web at http://www.earthmagic.org/?software if you want to have a play with it...
