Hi Guys,
I would have sent out the same message but during the entropy
generation stage I was banging my wireless mouse around quite a bit
and the batteries fell out.  I spent about two minutes picking up the
batteries as well as cleaning the random liquid that was probably
some sort of alcohol out of the battery compartment.  

Translated.
I have not looked at the code for this piece of the setup (or any
windows code at all) but I would be willing to bet that there is a
timer that is set at a specific timeout instead of the 'ok' button
being enabled after an acceptable amount of entropy has been received
by the algorithm.

Translated.
Try just waiting a LONG time... It worked for me but after about a
minute of moving the mouse and hitting the keyboard like I was trying
to break it, and about two minutes of no input to the software at
all, then a couple of key press events and a couple of mouse move
events.

Also,  Who is the developer for the windows based code.  Setup,
service (I know it is not a service but I will work on changing that
if applicable.), and base system (probably the person who is
responsible for the win32 build)?

/peace/

PS it is going to be a great honor to work with you all.
