Hi, gpg4win 1.0.4 contains a patch for GPG which fixes the existing problem in the original 1.4.4 release. Now WinPT/GPGee and all other GPG front-ends work again without any problems. Please remember that gpg4win contains still WinPT 0.12.3 and thus you need to update to version (WinPT) 1.0.0pre1 manually. Timo
