Users might unknowingly check a SHA-256 hash they generated with an MD5 string they received from the internet.

Since MD5 strings are shorter in length than SHA-256 strings:

[ ] Add a check to see string length matches that of SHA-256 or MD5
[ ] If it's not, let the user know they are comparing a SHA-256 checksum with an MD5 checksum
