Previous Comments: [2012-05-11 04:42:19] ras...@php.net because it makes no sense and on operating systems with a decent random number generator built in there is no bug. Windows XP is not such an operating system. You can try mt_rand() and see if you have more luck with that. rand() gives you the OS-native pseudo-random generator.
