Illegal
I would think that you would get a hash value on the exe file itself. Depending on your algorithm, you may have to convert the binary file into base64 and take a hash value on that.Quote:

The fact that it's an exe is completely irrelevant. It's just a file. There are numerous MD5 tools freely available that will give you the MD5 of any file you pass in.
There is nothing even remotely "Illegal" about any of this.
An MD5 will not help anyone extract the source code from an exe file.
Otherwise extracting the source code from a compiled binary, in some cases, would be illegal.
