I want to download a program which no longer exists on the official website of the program author. But someone uploaded it somewhere and he claims it's untouched. But that's exactly what someone who has embedded keyloggers in the program would say. I downloaded the program and calculated its SHA-1 using 7-zip. It matches the SHA-1 of the untouched program. Does this mean the program that I downloaded is 100% untouched, or SHA-1 can be faked?
