 Note that deriving more than 20 bytes is actually not part of the
 PKCS#5 standard (actually the standard says to *abort* in such case)
 and this "extension" is undocumented by Microsoft (making it a very
 bad feature to use for interop). It seems my attempt to match the
 derived data isn't 100% correct so I'll get a look at it (but I
 downgraded the priority).

+Thank you for all your comments they were very helpful. We are stuck
+still because all the examples I find have the PasswordDeriveByte
+producing 32 bytes and RijndaelCipher.CreateEncryptor requires 32
+bytes as well. 
+And yeah we are targetting 1.1 so I can't use Rfc2898DeriveBytes.
