And I strongly suggest that You _avoid_ gpg4win and simply install GnuPG
1.4.9 which proves nothing more than 2 folks have strong opinions
regarding which package You decide to use.  I do know that far less
Questions arise once someone downloads/installs the Current GnuPG 1.4.x
version from ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/binary/gnupg-w32cli-1.4.9.exe
than "We" receive from folks who grab gpg4win since it 'sounds' like the
Windows favorite and then they discover it is like far too many 'kitchen
sink' M$ Apps.  :(    You should _only_ need to Answer 2 Questions:
This directory OK? & Create Start Menu location?  Apply 'YES' to both
and You are good2go!

You will also probably desire a 'Frontend' for GnuPG and I heartily
recommend Enigmail if You use Thunderbird or SeaMonkey.  If not I then
would like to 'push' You toward GPGshell:

But this is Me and others always 'suggest' differently.  :-D
