Stach & Liu have some well document information on MD4/5 Collisions...
http://www.stachliu.com.nyud.net:809...ollisions.html

We live in a world that has to much "security via obscurity" or a "don't ask don't" tell policy on security problems...

Even back in 2005 MS and Big Bill's Boys banned the use of DES/MD4/MD5 on their projects, but even SHA1 and other systems they have chosen are still looking to be prone to attack.

I dug up a little info for this reply to someone... Can anyone provide some more input on the problems with MD5

Just how secure is MD5?
