I forgot to mention in previous post to your question, that every time
you encrypt with aesxam.exe (AES-CBC mode), the initialisation vector
that is picked up from cycles counter in Pentium CPU is written at the
beginning of the encrypted file, so when you decrypting, the
initialisation vector is picked up from the first 16 bytes.
