Hello,
	I just installed GnuPG for the first time, and generated a
key-pair.  When I try to encrypt a file to myself I get the following: 

---output---
[caleb@deepthought caleb]$ gpg --armor --recipient bokonon@rochester.rr.com --encrypt layout.inc
gpg: Warning: using insecure memory!
gpg: this cipher algorithm is depreciated; please use a more standard one!
---/output---

	I understand the first message, but not the second.  When I
encrypt a message to a friend of mine (who is using the newest version
of PGP) I don't get such a messgae.  Running this command does
produce an encrypted file which I am able to decrypt.
	Should I be worried about the message?
