Encryption software

I was telling a friend that I was going to buy a program similar to PC Anywhere to be able to communicate between my computer at home and the one at the office.  He suggested trying to find a similar program which includes encryption.
  Anyone know of such a program?
  Thanks.

I'd use: Linux + ssh + dosemu

You can run your text-based messy-dos programs remotely; I do it all the
time.

If your work computer is not on a tcp/ip network already, then you'll need
to use slip/ppp over the modem, which isn't hard.  Just read the dip manual
and/or pppd man page, it tells you how to set up a slip/ppp account.  Ssh
takes care of all the encryption for your logins and file transfers (scp).
