A total re-install? Or maybe, just an install. gpg4win-1.1.3.exe is the installer, not the actual gpg program. Maybe try the smaller installer from the GnuPG.org site: ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/binary/gnupg-w32cli-1.4.7.exe It .looks as if your friend has Enigmail configured to run the installer, not the installed program. -- John P.
