For a free solution, you might try NiftyTelnet and/or BetterTelnet.  I
think they both allow ssh encryption (in certain versions), and are (I'm
told) a lot less bloated/slow/crash prone than F/Secure (which is, I
think, the only commercial ssh for Mac, takes a meg and a half, and even
when run on a fast powermac, is slower than normal telnet on a Mac SE...).
