I don't see this one on the list :

Marxio File Checksum Verifier : Marxio File Checksum Verifier - portable tool to calculate many file checksum types

Great portable app to compare the checksums of 2 files. It can install/uninstall shell integration as well.

Suggested this one here:

Post #381 in this thread.

Sadly, it seems to have been ignored.

I was using it for a very long time, both on Vista and Win7 (RC [7100] and 7229), but I find that it occasionally tends to produce inaccurate checksums.

it is updated quite often, so if there were major problems, might have been fixed by now, I've had no problems with it so far.

let's hope it won't get ignored this time.

I see its been updated to 1.5.1. Just installed it again, and seems to be working perfectly this time around.

Yup, let's hope it's added to the list. Great little program to have.

Only of use to Excel users, but I can attest that it works perfectly regardless of version, and in Windows 7 (32-bit or 64-bit).
Its the best excel addon I have ever seen or used,

PAF 5.2 - Personal Ancestral File a great free genealogy program available from FamilySearch.org - Family History and Genealogy Records works brilliantly with Windows 7 even with text and icons set at 125% or greater scale (something which causes other programs to lose icons)

KompoZer, in my view one of the best free web page editors works just fine in the 32 bit version of Win7. It's available from KompoZer - Easy web authoring
