Add my vote to Dave's.  OpenVPN is what you should be using if you
haven't got a VPN yet.  Much easier than IPSec and comes with a
pre-configured set of CA scripts called easyrsa-2.0.

If you receive a virus warning from a friend and not through a virus
software vendor, it's likely to be a hoax.  Check http://www.snopes.com/
for information about the warning before you send it on to anyone else.

If you want a GUI to manage the certs, checkout tinyca - 
http://packages.ubuntu.com/tinyca


As for a VPN solution, OpenVPN is the easiest to get up and running and 
maintain.  The howto is located at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenVPN




I have a OpenPGP key if that worth anything to VPN


Your PGP/GPG key isn't any use.

Cheers
