gnupg-1.2.3-3.1.92mdk (if that helps)

Typing gpg-agent --daemon appears to start the agent (according to ps aux) but 
if I quit KGpg and restart again, I still get the error.

I'm using PCLinuxOS (Texstar's version of Mandrake 9.2). What about my other 
question....quote

Would the primary reason for having the agent running be to enable the Ägypten 
plugin for encryption of attachments?

Thanks.
