Read this article,

RSA Cryptography (http://www.mail-archive.com/cryptography%40wasabisystems.com)

It appears all of our PGP keys are't as secure as we once thought. I believe this is one of the first states that will pose a threat to RSA. Once we develope more efficient algorithms, or the mathies out there prove a couple of essential theorems....we can kiss sweet RSA goodbye

read about rsa purposely backing off at this as yet, unamed (;0) 3 letter agency request. It could have been tighter all along.
