Can anyone list the pseudo-random number generators used in todays stream ciphers that are considered secure or highly resistant to cryptanalysis?

Some pointers at eSTREAM. Also AES in CTR or OFB mode in effect are stream ciphers. – fgrieu Sep 25 '12 at 15:33

List questions are a bad fit for the Stack Exchange format, as they will usually never be completely answered, and invite lots of answers which each gives only some elements of the list, which means that there will be no right answer to accept. As such, I'm closing the question. – Paŭlo Ebermann♦ Sep 25 '12 at 16:46
