Movable Type 4.32-en tag:ask-leo.com,2009://3.3786-comment:40724 Comment from Derek on 2009-12-04 Derek This is a nice article. Another solution is SSH. Setup a linux box with SSH enabled on it. Leave it on at your home connected to your internet. Take your windows laptop or home computer, get putty on it, download xming for xforwarding and ssh into the linux box and wa lah, everything end to end is encrypted under SSH protocol. Is it slow? A little bit but not to frustrating for internet use.

Actually Skype has been encrypting everything for years, if not from the very beginning:

The independent security evaluation linked-to on the page above is an interesting read.
