Not site feedback I'm afraid, but a question about GPGShell. I'm using 
v3.30 on a system showing the following environment info:

Operating System : Windows 98 (CP850/CP1252)

DLL/OCX Versions
  vb40032.dll     : v4.0.29.24	(required: v4.0.29.24 or later)
  comdlg32.ocx    : v6.0.84.18	(required: v6.0.84.18 or later)
  mscomctl.ocx    : v6.0.88.62	(required: v6.0.88.62 or later)
  richtx32.ocx    : v6.0.88.4	(required: v6.0.88.4  or later)

GnuPG Version    : v1.4.0	(required: v1.2.5 (v1.3.6))

Directories
  GnuPG (gpg.exe) : c:\gnupg
  GnuPG-HomeDir   : c:\gnupg
  GPGshell        : c:\program files\gpgshell
  GPGshell-HomeDir: c:\windows\application data\gpgshell
  PGPdump         : <unavailable>
  Windows         : c:\windows

Parameters       :

Translation      : <none>

Variables
  COMSPEC System  : c:\windows\command.com
          GPGshell: c:\windows\command.com
  HTTP_PROXY      : <not set>
  PATH            : 
c:\windows;c:\windows\command;c:\utils\arj;c:\utils\lhar;c:\utils\pk;c:\gnupg;c:\gnupg\locale
  TEMP            : c:\windows\temp
  TZ              : <not set>

Every time I try to run Trust>Check Trust DB I get the following error 
turning up in the output window:

gpg: renaming `C:/GnuPG\pubring.gpg' to `C:/GnuPG\pubring.bak' failed: 
Permission denied
gpg: failed to rebuild keyring cache: file rename error
gpg: renaming `c:\gnupg\pubring.gpg' to `c:\gnupg\pubring.bak' failed: 
Permission denied
gpg: failed to rebuild keyring cache: file rename error
gpg: public key of ultimately trusted key 0xEA99B0E23922AC2A not found
gpg: public key of ultimately trusted key 0xAFB4B8D0806B3F08 not found
gpg: 3 marginal(s) needed, 1 complete(s) needed, classic trust model
gpg: depth: 0  valid:   3  signed:   0  trust: 0-, 0q, 0n, 0m, 0f, 3u

Press any key to continue . . .

Any suggestions as to what might be causing this would be greatly 
appreciated.

Kind regards...
