"Ian Farquhar" says:
If it is, then the person who did it has gone to a lot of trouble to make the source layout and coding style very similar to the publicly available MD[245] sources. Compare them and you'll see what I mean. One of the original reasons I thought that this was a fake was the similarity (adds credibility), but when it was verified I began to think that this is, in fact, the real source from RSADSI. I don't think that this is a reverse engineering job, because I can't see any motive for anyone to put the work into making the code look so similar.
One possibility is that the author may have simply decompiled the original code... Perry
