The RIPEMD folks have been carefully tweaking Pentium hashing times.
A speed chart is available at http:

I agree here. Still, it's probably better to move away
Actually, MD5 is still holding up, but Dobbertin has indeed dented it.
Frankly, it would take a *hell* of a determined attacker to manage
to turn it into a successful securitty exploit if it's used for
file checksums.
All of RIPEMD-160, SHA-1 and MD5 are variants on MD4.
Frankly, I find the desig
