I chose purse mycelium because it is very convenient to use
Is there any web wallet that uses its server's PRNG ?
Yes. Most of them. Some examples:- localbitcoins.com
- bitstamp
- btc-e
- coinbase
Of course not. You asked about web wallets that use the web server's PRNG. If you are using someone else's PRNG, then they have the ability to control your private keys.
Is not it the case that even web wallets trust on our machine's PRNG?
Some of them, such as blockchain.info, do. Others don't.

localbitcoins.com, bitstamp, btc-e should not be considered as web wallet. Do u own the private key of those wallets like u do for blockchain.info or carbonwallet.com ?
I am running bitcoin core as a full node to help the whole network. 
Sorry to go off topic but how much bandwidth does that use?
I use Blockchain because moving a low sums, is fast, easy way to create account, no need to sync, but if I had too much could keep a client PC or on paper wallet.
I use the Blockchain and the Andriod app. I've start using the QT for other coins but I have a datalimit so I'm waiting for it to reset before downloading the Bitcoin blockchain.
I use the official, Electrum is also good but i don't trust.
The others are bugged and weird.

btc-qt and blockchain for me
Probably this is the safest combination for most of the people.
I also use Armory, it is incredibly safe. Nobody can get my bitcoins even if they hack my computer, as the actual wallet is stored on a USB and used on a different, offline computer. Sure it takes more time for me to send my bitcoins somewhere, but I'll take the 99.9% security over convenience any day.
Bitcoin-QT on desktop, blockchain.info web wallet on smartphone. A winning combination.
Multibit and Bitcoin-qt
btc-qt and blockchain for me
+1 to Electrum. You don't need to download the full block data with it, and you only need to backup the 12-words seed. 
I use and recommend Electrum. It's lightweight and comes with a great feature - the "seed", which enables you to retrieve your bitcoins should you lose your computer or it is compromised in any way.

how do you do this??Run bitcoin core (previously called bitcoin-qt) and forward port 8333.
For details, you can refer to this old thread (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=128122.0;all).
