You should always check CPAN to see if there's a module you can use. In
this case, a search for 'MD5' gives you the Digest::MD5 module, along
with a simple example:

use Digest::MD5 qw(md5);
$digest = md5($data);

For more information and options, see
http://search.cpan.org/~gaas/Digest-MD5-2.33/MD5.pm
