    On my system, my FireWall allows 3 programs of the GPG suite to go out:
GPG.exe
GPGKEYS_HKP.exe
GPGKEYS_LDAP.exe

    The last one is only involved in a special way. I think that's a
suppletive URL.
    Notice that one of the KeyServers installed on my system seems actually
to be down, and I've to wait until GPG surrounds when trying to update.
