I touched on this in a previous thread concerning PGP vs S/MIME. Nonetheless... Salon had an interesting article talking about users turning to GnuPG to fill the void left by NAI and PGP: http://www.salon.com/tech/feature/2002/03/27/gnupg/index.html The biggest barrier to Windows users is probably a lack of GUI / integration by GnuPG itself. However, there are plugins and GUI wrapper apps out there that may help. I have yet to try any of them myself (my main desktop OS is Linux and my mail app has built in GnuPG support). But it might be worth looking at a few links I've picked up and placed in my "backburner todo" list: http://www.gnupg.org/frontends.html http://enigmail.mozdev.org/index.html http://www.jumaros.de/rsoft/gpgshell.html http://www3.gdata.de/gpg/ http://www.winpt.org/ http://www.geocities.com/openpgp/courrier_en.html -- .: Paul Hosking .
