This key is to sign control messages of the hun.* newsgroups. It is quite unlikely that someone wants to spend any time with breaking of it. :-) It is no worth to do it. However administering and distribute a new key may be problematic. I don't know yet how much. > RSA-512 is grossly inadequate for essentially any serious cryptographic > purpose. > > If you absolutely _must_ have this key in GnuPG, well, we can help you > do it.

If this cannot be done by my self in one hour then I figure out what is the cost of changing the key. Thanks for your advices.
