You have to buy it from pgp.com

Limitations of the free version of PGP, according to their web site:

PGP Freeware product capabilities/limitations:
- Does not include PGP Disk
- Does not include automatic encryption of email file attachments
- Does not provide plug-in integration with Outlook, Outlook Express, or other email applications on any platform
- Does not operate with PGP Admin or other PGP deployment tools



In other words, you can encrypt a file manually and attach it to an email, but you can't encrypt emails directly.

Without a 'Personal' licence, the plugins for Outlook will not work, although they do install.

With the freeware version, you can simply use the PGPtray functions. These are very easy to use, and you can assign keyboard shortcuts to the functions like sign and encrypt.
