Hm, you're right. I didn't realize that it could be predicted after so few values. I'll re-work that part to use /dev/urandom or RtlGenRandom directly when they're available. On systems where they're *not* available, is there a better choice of generator, given an (unpredictable) user-supplied seed value? - -- Chad Nelson Oak Circle Software, Inc. * * * -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkutP+UACgkQp9x9jeZ9/wSn8ACgictlL+BVXaSDUMQwKP6iMoPx xOsAnRuhUNu8RkAzm91SS1pr39yhewEd =1g3x -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
