Don't know where to tell you to start looking for the error but it works here
once I specify the server to search on. Perhaps you have something blocking
the 11371 port for sending/receiving to/from the hkp server.
$ gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --search-keys [EMAIL PROTECTED]
gpg: searching for "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" from hkp server pgp.mit.edu
