Jabber does (did?) have OpenPGP support in the protocol.  The only
client I know of offhand that implemented it is Gabber, which doesn't
run on Windows.

I heard a story that Jabber was dropping OpenPGP support and using
something they came up with internally instead - I don't know more
than that (and it may not even be true).
