I use Outlook (the one with OfficeXP) and it came up fine, just had an

Oh goodie, the "least broken" keyserver, that of course means that it
still has issues and is probably broken in some way. This makes me want
to use GPG or PGP every day and trust it :)

Seriously, how can you trust anything like this.. There's gotta be a
better way. Most of the ways I've seen people use GPG/PGP is stupid
anyway. Some people sign emails that they know 95% of the people that
recive them will either not bother to confirm the GPG/PGP sig or don't
know how.. Of they use it to encrypt files and put it on a disk only to
put the pass phrase on the disk or email it to people over an unencryped
channel (this happens to me all the time at work).
