"This is my public key" is not a PGP key, obviously. I don't know how
much you know about encryption but it sounds like you're confusing the
actual key with the passphrase.

Anyway, as the "latest" Cryptix release is more than two years old,
you're probably riding a dead horse. We switched to BC quite a while
ago (http://www.bouncycastle.org/) and never looked back. It's got way
better documentation/examples and is actively developed.
