One unlikely suggestion, to rule out a persistent problem I have,
which is gpg-agent getting stuck at 100% CPU. To check for that, run
'top' and then filter, by typing 

  oCOMMAND=gpg

If you see gpg-agent running at 100%, find its Windows pid using

  ps -W | grep gpg-agent
  taskkill /pid [column 4 from above result] /f

Unlikely, but it _might_ explain your problem.
