Apparently Alan is required to use the version of GnuPG that is on the
Enterprise supplied USB stick.  When Maxine & I developed the .bat File
it was for use on a floppy drive inserted into an alien machine.  The
primary reasoning was to utilize the native Command prompt screen on the
'host' PC in order to keep the GPG2GO package as small as possible to
fit the floppy.

Alan may not have the space or permission to install Haller's
Thunderbird-Portable in addition to the version already installed.  With
GPG2GO there was no graphical User interface and _all_ GnuPG functions
had to be called from the command prompt.
