Evo 2 stage authentication problem - locked out - help!!

HI

I have seen how helpful the experienced folk on here can be and I, as a noob, am very hopeful you can help me out with this one..

So I recently set up 2 stage authent on my new account on Evo as I thought it was th way to go, security wise..so I put my Public PGP key in through settings and all seemed fine.

Yet now when I#ve gone to log back in to Evo the first stage (password) was fine but at stage 2 it had an encrypted PGP 'question' and asked me to stick the 'answer' below.

I figured copy pasting that above PGP encrypted (key?) into PGA and decrypting would give me something to put back in as my 'amswer' but..nope..so what am I doing wwong/misunderstanding about this?

As you will be aware I am unfamiliar with PGP and trying to wrap my head around it - I did find an excellent guide which helped me set it up with PGA and I've just begun to get to grips, but so much still confuses m - like how to send messages to vendors, when they don't put a Public key up that I can see? And that's how I encrypt a messsage to them, isn't it? AN dthen they use my public key to encrypt a msg to me..am I getting that right?

Anyway, sorry that's already two questions..the first one about signing back in to Evo is the main priority righ now. ANy help with this would be amazing and very much appreciated!!

Look forward to speaking to you guys more in future too - the forum is fantastic, I'm loving the support on here..

In Gassho

Yeah, thanks Bitch, but like I said I read that already..anyway I got it solved - there was some issue with my PGA which I've resolved..Now however I'm in and have a new Q to pick your bright brains' - I'm in to Evo now and looking to discuss with a vendor..so in the send msg box I stick my PGP public key and send (is that the right way to do it? I know there are the guides, I have read them, I'm not a complete muppet but there's the practical element of applying it with the msg's I just haven't quite got my head around yet, I think ; )

Anyway, please let me know on that point if possible..Thirdly, the vendor replies anyway and says no pgp; plain text only..user is Mirkov (in Evo, as I say); is this right? Is that general for Evo, or is it him? how is that sensible way to communicate, after all I read about the importance of PGP and now vendors just want to completely ignore it..am I heading down the rabbit hole - about to get duped - here, or what?

Would REALLY appreciate any and all feedback buys, before I get myself in a right ol' mess.

Mucho obrigado

Edit - Mirkov is a level 5 overwhelmingly good feedback..
