I ran into the same issue when installing PGPNet/PGPVpn and found a way to sort it out without reinstalling anything. If this ever happens to anybody on this list, simply reboot in safe mode and answer "no" to the first question XP asks you when you have rebooted in safe mode. Instead of bringing you the safe mode desktop, XP will go in Restore mode and will present you a calendar of the system restore points that he has made. Simply select a date before you did the installation and ask him to restore. The operation should take between 5 and 10 minutes and after that you will have to reboot and will be fine. Don't worry if you didn't make manual restore points, since XP is doing automatic system restore point for you.

Just DON'T use PGPnet/PGPvpn with the XP network stack. For whatever reason Microsoft decided that the TCP/IP stack could never get corrupted or screwed up. As such if it does get messed up due to some network program you have to reinstall XP from scratch. However if you use PGPmail it works fine. If you get an error of "Can't Contact the PGPsdk service" its due to the fact that XP optimizes the program/services load order to make it appear to load faster to an end user. Just wait a minute and then run the PGPtray program again and it should be able to contact the PGPsdk at that point. ian - -----Original Message----- From: Duane Beck [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, March 19, 2002 10:46 AM To: [C] Teodorski, Chris; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: PGP for XP > From what I understand there is no PGP that currently works with Windows XP, is this correct?
