+It's possible to register an alternative RNG using CryptoConfig and 
+the machine.config file. The assembly Mono.Security.Win32.dll has a 
+RNGCryptoServiceProvider class that works (exclusively) on Windows.
+
+This is the configuration required to use the Mono.Security.Win32.dll 
+assembly for Windows users.
