Windows 7 checksums for verification

[mixdev]

Recently Microsoft announced that they are ready with Windows 7 RTM (http://windowsteamblog.com/blogs/windows7/archive/2009/07/22/sneak-peek-at-the-rtm-announcement.aspx) (Release to Manufacture (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_release_life_cycle)) and the original image files are already out for download at many websites. But it is advisable to crosscheck the filehashes to avoid getting infected with rootkits and other malware. A German Microsoft employee had published (http://blogs.technet.com/dmelanchthon/archive/2009/07/23/windows-7-rtm.aspx) the Windows 7 checksums. This will come handy when you want to check CRC32/SHA1 hashes.
