AES in CTR mode rather than RC4? #7

Description

@GoogleCodeExporter
Rather than using RC4 in your PRNG, consider using AES in CTR mode to reduce 
your trusted base. CTR mode allows using the same cipher as is used elsewhere 
in your design (AES) in places where you need a stream cipher. As long as your 
key and IV are sufficiently unpredictable, it is considered secure.
