try this:

gpg -h
and see if IDEA comes up on this list of algorithms installed

if not,
there is your answer,
and try putting this into your gpg.conf :
load-extension o:\utilities\idea.dll

and try again

here is a pgp2.x v3 test key and encrypted test file you can try on 
your system
(using gnupg 1.4.8 the key imported 
and the file decrypted without problems)
