Description

MD5 Reborned Hasher is incompatible with the new layout of the Downloads window in Firefox 20 and later.

We need to wait for that bug to be fixed before updating our documentation on ISO verification with Firefox.

The workaround with browser.download.useToolkitUI is not working anymore in FF26. So this method is completely broken now.

Furthermore, the dev of MD5 Reborned Hasher hasn’t moved since 2011.

Maybe it’s time to move to another tool…

The development of MD5 Reborned Hasher is really stalled. So let’s move on to other tools…
