Actually, don't install that just yet. There are reports that it can be difficult to uninstall and that some downloads may contain a virus. Wait until others on this refdesk chime in and check any download thoroughly with a virus checker.-gadfium04:41, 26 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Here's the web site; I haven't tried it but it certainly looks legitimate to me. What reports are you talking about? I searched for "UBitMenu virus" and only saw a few of those scam sites that have boilerplate pages for every software product in existence. -- BenRG (talk) 07:15, 26 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I've been using UbitMenu since Microsoft inflicted the ribbon on us. It has worked well on M$Office 2007, 2010 and 2013. I have never had a problem with it and the virus checkers have never flagged the download as being infected. I highly recommend it. --TrogWoolley (talk) 13:30, 26 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, I didn't realise that some sites report everything as a virus. So long as you download it from the original site, as linked by BenRG, you should be fine. Avoid third party sites which offer you freeware as they sometimes bundle other software into the installer.-gadfium22:01, 26 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
As i have said before(in a previous post) i can't go to any other website for information on this topic except here on wiki. Sorry. Could you post some of the example code? I am so sorry. If i had complete internet access in would just Google it. Hence why i am asking here. Thanks. —SGA314 (talk) 15:52, 27 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
The stackoverflow page has VB.NET not VBA sample code. There's pseudo-code on the MD5 article. It might be better to roll your own MD5 function. LongHairedFop (talk) 18:46, 27 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, yes. I do want to create my own MD5 function. However, I don't know the process in which to compute an MD5 hash. Whats the steps to do so? What formulas are involved? these are the questions i need answered in order to make my own MD5 function. —SGA314 (talk) 15:49, 28 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
What I've done is to bust it up into individual, single-frame images (I forget if I used gifsicle or one of the NetPBM tools for this), and then view and step through the collection in an image viewer (for me, typically MacOS Preview). —Steve Summit (talk) 21:40, 26 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you all your help. How about IrfanView (Windows 7)? And do you know any browser that allows you to do that for a GIF file that is part of a web page? Without having to download it locally that is. ContactBasemetalhere00:59, 28 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
In Firefox, I can right-click and Set as Desktop Background. It gives me a preview of whatever frame I clicked it on. Just a temporary download. Not sure if that's in the Windows version. If so, it's not a great method (hard to get an exact frame in a fast gif, wrong-sized thumbnail), but it's something. InedibleHulk(talk)01:18, 28 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
