1. Ther is a free SSL package called SSLeay from Down Under (
well, some call it Australia.... ). It goes up to 256 byte
encryption, I think. It is the same group that makes
Cryptozilla, BTW.

2. Such a thing is in the works at OberlandNet. They simply
funnel all the sensitive info through PGP. If you want to have
it made by them, contact Peter Knoblach at pk@example.com with
greetings from me.
