Hey, how come it says prathapml in Green now?!?!?

Cool, another one to ask favors of!!!

Just kiddin' ya, prathapml. Thanks for the links: I was waiting for the "official" word.

GM doesn't like me anymore

Could someone who downloaded from the above links post their MD5sum/CRC please?

Don't want to re-download it, but I also want to check if the version I downloaded from Windows Beta is the same as this. If you remember, there was some fuss about the "rtm" strings in the WinBeta 2180 build's name. How is this one, then?

LOL, nevermind that, I like you a lot.

Aw, come on Alanoll: Why, just last night I posted something in the Unattended forum thinking of you, and how there hadn't been any clean up for you for a while! (I guess I ran out of beer too early!)

I'll post the MD5 sum when it's done....it was going down at 1mb a sec, but then i guess people got ahold of the link, and fast. it's now 123 kb/s

I believe teh RTM strings are still there. But I won't have a chance to isntall for a few more hours (don't wanna make the IT guys mad here ) But 2003 still has RTM in it's build string i believe.

What's a good CRC checker? lol.

im downloading at 377 kbs right now ill tell you what the MD5 is in about 5 mins

Md5Sum for the English SP2 just downloaded:

59a98f181fe383907e520a391d75b5a7

It's exactly the same file from the Windowsbeta site.

Yep same here : 59a98f181fe383907e520a391d75b5a7

I'm gonna go slipstream it now

What's a good CRC checker? lol.

I've been using the **** Hash Calculator for awhile. It does more than just CRC-32 and MD5 which isn't always necessary but it's a nice little program and gets the job done

CRC-32

HAVAL: 128, 160, 192, 224 and 256 with 3, 4, and 5 passes

MD5

RIPEMD-160

SHA: 160, 256, 384 and 512

59a98f181fe383907e520a391d75b5a7

3 for 3. Good good.

The digital signature is also the same from the previous files....

wow i download @ about 6KB usually
