Which versions and builds do you use exactly? Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-12-20 01:03:56] tanguy dot pruvot at gmail dot com From OpenSSL 0.9.8q Sources : The RAND_screen() function is available for the convenience of Windows programmers. It adds the current contents of the screen to the PRNG. For applications that can catch Windows events, seeding the PRNG by calling RAND_event() is a significantly better source of randomness. It should be noted that both methods cannot be used on servers that run without user interaction. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-12-20 00:58:33] tanguy dot pruvot at gmail dot com The last known good version was 5.2.13 (which is faster than 3 seconds but adds a slow delay) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-12-20 00:53:52] tanguy dot pruvot at gmail dot com Description: ------------ I reopen this issue because all others (since 2 years) have been closed without resolution...
