Like the manual says, IPC is hard to use when you didn't write the program you are opening. You could grab the source to PGP, switch on debugging and see where it is stopping, if it has finished, etc.

My (old) version of PGP encrypted files fine. Just write your message to a text file (in the tmp or c:\temp directory) and then read the final file. It used to be pgp -e filename.txt etc.etc.

If at this point you start pointing out that you are worried about someone reading your harddrive sector by sector then you should probably go to the effort of installing one of the PGP modules from CPAN.
