Encryption software

Greetings,

I was following links through the PGPi site for the free Windows PGP
download, and found out that version 8 appears to be discontinued, and
version 9 is now only a 30-day trial. I grabbed the GNUpg command-line
tool to check out since it's free.

Do any of you have any recommendations for free encryption software that
will run on both Windows XP and Windows 2003? I had previously used the
freeware PGP and was happy with it. 

EFS is not an option, since the files lose encryption once they are
moved to non-NTFS media.
