I solved my problem. After reinstalling pgp it asked if I had previous key rings it could use, so I checked yes. It used the keys even though they were encrypted, even though it refused to before reinstallation.

  I have pgp version 7.0.3. I recently (accidently) encrypted the keys, so now every file I have encrypted cannot be decrypted until the keys are decrypted....but the keys cant be decrypted until...etc. I tried uninstalling pgp and reinstalling it, while saving the old encrypted keys, and tried to re-create them but that did not work. Is there anyway possible to decrypt these keys?
