When I create a key and send it to the person I want to begin communicating with encryption, the other person gets this when importing the key: "Error - key importing failed gpg: key 5D391D97 was created 55491 seconds in the future (time warp or clock problem)" The clock is set properly.

I created a different key and I have the same problem. I can send you the public key in case that helps solve the problem but you need to provide me with an email address because I cannot upload it here. Thank you for your assistance. Cecilia

You checked the clock, however what about the date?
