ssh stands for Secure SHell. It is similiar to telnet, except that it is encrypted the entire time, whereas telnet is not. This gives much better security and protection against people who might be watching connections. ssh includes scp, Secure CoPy, which allows you to transfer files from one machine to another. There is a Windows ssh client available at www.ssh.com.
