Looks like an MD5 Hash. Although, not sure how it is generated before that. Too lazy to mess around with it.

A checksum is the output of an algorithm that represents the "uniqueness" of some data. Some common applications are to check if a file has been modified or corrupted.
EG: Take the first byte of your file, multiplied by the 10th byte, and added to the 13th, 17th, and 32nd bytes and that is your checksum.
A hash algorithm can be used as a checksum. They are kinda like one-way encryption that always comes out the same size. Some examples are MD5 and SHA1.
Damn you checksum, I had trolling in mind.....

Hope that helps!

Thanks... that's what it sounded like, but I wasn't sure.
