Please update to the latest gnupg of that series (1.2.7) or even to 1.4.0a. You should also run the decryption from the command line to sort out where the problems are.

I'm not sure what WinPT release you use, but make sure you
do _not_ use the Windows Privacy Tools from SF.net. Use gpg4win
instead or directly WinPT (1.0.0pre2) and GPG 1.4.5.

This was a problem in WinPT pre "new-gpgme".
