Which version of GnuPG to use?

[Daniel Bossert]

Hi all

Some years ago I used GnuPG, but somewhen stopped with it.

Now I want to start again. However there are many rumors that it is 
unsecure meanwhile.

I need recommendations:
- Which version of software shall I install?
- Create key via cli-commands or is Windows-Version ok?
- Which keys shall I take (there was an article not to encrypt/sign with 
El-Gamal)?

Many thanks and kind regards
Daniel
