Hi.
There are instructions for ISO checksum validation on Windows available at

http://docs.fedoraproject.org/readme-burning-isos/en_US/sn-validating-files.html

Maybe it would be a good idea to add link to Microsoft's own SHA1/MD5 calculator (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=B3C93558-31B7-47E2-A663-7365C1686C08). I've recently met a bit paranoid guy who complained on an Internet forum that he can't verify Fedora ISO checksum on his Windows system because your site doesn't provide any Windows utility for that and instead it only points to some 3rd party tools, which he doesn't trust.

Regards,
