Initial Comment:
When installing Gpg4win (latest version 2.1.0) on Win2k, errors are thrown when running GPA, but also for simple gpg encryption and decryption. It complains that the procedure entry point freeaddrinfo is missing in Ws2_32.dll - which is known to be introduced in XP only (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms737931%28VS.85%29.aspx). Looks like current Gpg4win doesn't support Win2k anymore?
