I just was plaing with this and other functions and came up with this. May be it will help some body paranoid. function uniq_id() { if (!$GLOBALS["IHaveCalledSrandBefore"]++) { srand((double) microtime() * 1234567892524324); } $id = md5( uniqid( rand( bcmul( microtime(), microtime(), rand(1,123) ), bcdiv( rand(0,93583746), rand(1,357409823), rand(1,123) ) ), bcpow( microtime(), getmypid(), rand(microtime(),getmyinode()) ) ) ); Return $id; } function suniq_id() { $seed = uniq_id() .microtime() .uniq_id() .microtime() .uniq_id() .microtime() .uniq_id(); $id = md5(base64_encode($seed)); Return $id; } I hope you understand what to do with this. It is a bit slow but on my laptop to generate 1000 keys of the suniq_id function took about 80 seconds.
