                * A RNGCryptoServiceProvider built on top of CryptoAPI.
 
                * Wrapper classes for unmanaged versions of hash algorithms:
-                 MD2, MD4, MD5 and SHA1 are supported.

-               * Not (yet) commited in CVS - i'm still playing with the base
-                 classes so I can easily add other CryptoAPI-based algorithms.
+                 MD2, MD4, MD5 and SHA1 are supported. <b>note</b>: some 
+                 algorithms shouldn't be used in new design (MD4 is broken and
+                 MD2 isn't considered safe). They are included to preserve

+                 still valid, X.509 certificates use MD2).
