Here is a step by step guide to figuring out encryption using GPG4WIN. This is the exact process I used to install the program and begin using encryption.

First, go to http://www.gpg4win.org/ and download the program.

You can go ahead and install everything, it does not take up that much space and who knows, you might find some of the other stuff useful someday. The component we will be focusing on here is GPA, so if you are really picky about cluttering your computer, just install this.

Go ahead and open up GPA, you should see a big grey box that has the words "Key Manager" in nice big black lettering on it.

Go up to the top left corner where it says "Keys". Click that then choose "New Key".

For now, ignore everything except the name and email sections. Go ahead and fill in your SR username and an associated Tor Mail account. You do not need an email account, but it may help in case SR goes down and a vendor needs to contact you and has your key.

GPA will now prompt you to enter your pass phrase. Make sure to make this nice and long, but not so complicated that you cannot remember it.

There you go! You now have a key ready for use!

Now that you have a key, head over to the Newbie PGP Club (http://dkn255hz262ypmii.onion/index.php?topic=107219.0) and take a look at using public keys to encrypt and private keys to decrypt stuff. I will be using the key provided by the creator of the thread, scout.

First off, you have to import scout's public key. The way I do it is a bit convoluted, but it works! You can do this by copying and pasting the key into a .txt document on your computer, saving it, then going into GPA and selecting "Import" then selecting the .txt file with the key. After it imports, you can delete/shred the file.

Now that you have it in, you can click on "Clipboard", type a message, then hit "Encrypt" and select scout's public key. It will complain about it not knowing for sure if the key belongs to the person, but just ignore that and click ok. Then, copy and paste the message and send it off to scout for checking! Do not forget to send him your new public key as well, so that he can encrypt and send a message for you to decrypt! You can do this by copy and pasting the encrypted message into GPA Clipboard, then clicking decrypt
and entering your pass phrase.

Thats it! There are more things to do with it, such as signing, but this is pretty much all you need to know for your regular day to day SR use!

If you want to try this out with me, here is my public key:

You can send me a PM on here to test it. Go ahead and send me your key as well if you want or, as stated earlier, head over to scout's thread and try it there!

Good luck!
