==============

it's not that gpg isn't secure on windoze; it that *nothing* can be made 
secure in windoze.

if you have a need to use pgp, GnuPG is great, but like any application it 
can't overcome deficiencies in the OS. use what you need to use, but if 
security (and/or reliability) is non-trivial you'll need to start using 
*nix or maybe mac-os.
