.NET URL encodes as specified in RFC's 1738 and, for example, 1630, to emulate
the behaviour of web browsers.  The encoding of the space to a plus sign is
something of an anomaly.  The plus sign is just a "safe" version of a space in
a _query_string_, which is part of an URL.  The dot is a safe character and
doesn't need to be _URL_ encoded, so escape() does more than just URL encoding.

MD5-generators. Depending on which one you use, you will get two

MD5 works on bits, not such abstract notions as "letters".  There are many ways
to turn an "ä" into bits, which is why your results differ.
