Same here... By the way, I still don't understand the benefit from
GPG2... at first I thought the addition of support of x509 certificates
would allow to use them in a ring of trust model (like the PGP model),
but I am not even sure about if GPG2 can generate such certificates...
but I remember I saw, when the cetificate generation bug in OpenSSL for
debian machines was discovered, a site said "certificates generated by
GnuPG are not affected".
For those reasons, if somebody asks if it is hard to install GPG on
windows, I say "no, install version 1.4.9, it is easy" ;-)
Best Regards
P.S: I know GPG2 is supposed to work with outlook, but I don't use
outlook at all, so...
