Your key has been signed by 16 other people - all unknown. No ID apart from one 65D0FD58 - CA Cert Signing Authority (Root CA) <[email protected]> though your key is fully detailed at http://keys.gnupg.net/pks/lookup?search=+0x58A2D94A93A0B9CE&op=vindex - may be you need to download your public key from a key server - always a good idea when you have uploaded it after your key has been signed. You can only use this signature for signing (not encrypting) and for certification. Bad? There appears to be nothing bad about this public key - why would you get 16 people to sign a key if you were not going to communicate with them? David
