Thanks everyone of you, you have greatly enlightened me concerning the security risks associated with my endeavor. I will have to rethink my plans, but for now, I think John's idea of setting GNUPGHOME seems like the best idea to me.

However, for convenience, I'd like to maybe use a batch file to set it and open a command prompt. This would require me to be able to set it to a relative path (ie, not have to specify a drive letter, as it will change). Is this possible?

As for GPGShell, it seems pretty good, but I'd prefer to just keep my old command line if I can.

The last version of GPG2Go I could find is 1.4.1, which seems pretty outdated. Also, the author says it is the exact same thing as the official gnupg except repackaged as a zip. Which doesn't solve the problem of gpg writing to local disks by default.
