When using IM please use Pidgin (the new name for gaim after problems from AOL)  with OTR or the encryption plugin. 

With it you can talk to your friends using AIM, ICQ, Jabber/XMPP (google talk), MSN Messenger, Yahoo!, Bonjour, Gadu-Gadu, IRC, Novell GroupWise Messenger, QQ, Lotus Sametime, SILC, SIMPLE, and Zephyr. It's 100% free and encrypted with the plug in.

You can download it at:

When sending email use PGP or Gnupg to encrypt all email.  You can use the enigmail for mozilla thunderbird if you use windows. If you use linux/*bsd/OSX I recommend kmail.
