ASP components trouble with Windows API

I can't get getBytes to return anything..

' -- This is clsStrongRNG

Option Explicit
Private Const PROV_RSA_FULL = 1
Private Const CRYPT_NEWKEYSET = &H8
Private Const MS_DEF_PROV = "Microsoft Enhanced Cryptographic Provider v1.0"
Private Const API_ERROR = 0

Private Declare Function CryptAcquireContext Lib "advapi32.dll" Alias "CryptAcquireContextA" ( _
    phProv As Long, ByVal pszContainer As Long, ByVal pszProvider As String, _
    ByVal dwProvType As Long, ByVal dwFlags As Long) As Long

Private Declare Function CryptReleaseContext Lib "advapi32.dll" (ByVal hProv As Long, _
    ByVal dwFlags As Long) As Long

Private Declare Function CryptGenRandom Lib "advapi32.dll" _
    (ByVal hProv As Long, _
    ByVal dwLen As Long, _
    ByVal pbBuffer As String) As Long

Private Declare Function GetLastError Lib "kernel32" () As Long

Public Function getBytes(lngSaltLen As Variant) As Variant
    On Error GoTo getSaltError
    Dim lngCryptContextHandle As Long
    Dim lngReturnCode As Long
    Dim strTemp As String
    Dim strProvider As String
    strTemp = 0&
    strProvider = MS_DEF_PROV & vbNullChar
    Dim strBuffer As String
    getBytes = ""
    lngSaltLen = Abs(lngSaltLen)
    strBuffer = String(lngSaltLen, vbNull)
    If Not CBool(CryptAcquireContext(lngCryptContextHandle, strTemp, strProvider, PROV_RSA_FULL, 0)) Then
        If GetLastError = 0 Then
            If Not CBool(CryptAcquireContext(lngCryptContextHandle, strTemp, strProvider, PROV_RSA_FULL, CRYPT_NEWKEYSET)) Then
                GoTo getSaltError
