hey guys. observe this insanity.
this is off a business data comm mailing list.
he replied to the below with:

I received an e-mail from a fellow student with the following instructions.
Perhaps these will solve any remaining problems:
""If you are having problems with Roadrunner and PGP, try the following:
1. Uninstall PGP and verify that the network protocols installed by PGP have
been removed (look in SETTINGS-->CONTROL PANEL-->NETWORK).
2. Reinstall PGP, this time ensuring that the PGP Virtual Private Networking
is not checked (it is checked by default).
3. If the keys do not upload to the server immediately, restart the computer
and try again (mine took a few tries).
No guarantees, but this solved my Roadrunner/PGP problems.-David""

Subject: Re: PGP availability
i don't understand what you're talking about. roadrunner is an isp.
pgp is software. your isp doesn't have to "support" pgp for you to
use it to encrypt your email...unless maybe you're using some
sort of roadrunner webmail thing.
pgp doesn't use a com port...not sure what you mean...
i sometimes find knowledgable people back in the little
room off to the back right of the mill.lab, talk to someone
in there about installing pgp.
