I am unable to import a particular vendors public key. Any suggestions? I am using gpg4usb. When I click to import it says " no keys found to import". The vendor says others have used it successfully, so I dont understand why it wont work for me? Any idea how I can get it to work?

Make sure to copy the entire ASCII armored key including the lines
-----BEGIN PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK-----
-----END PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK-----
Try deleting the 'version' line such as:
Version: GnuPG v2.0.20 (MingW32)
Near the end, try deleting the carriage return/linefeed between the = and then pressing enter and try again:

Glad you got it working. The tip about deleting the version I saw a vendor mention in a different thread.
