Then encrypt the RAR file with PGP and then zip it up in a password protected ZIP file, run it through blowfish, change the extension to .TIF and put it in a TAR file.

You really have no clue of what it is you are speaking, do you? :D

Make it into a passworded split-rar archive, and then also rar/password each of the individual parts and upload them to a secure place.

Truecrypt file with dual-layer encryption.
Delete the file extension.
Send.

If anyone intercepts it, they'll see only random data, without even any indication of what kind of file it is.




Darn you, ivan2!

A self-destructing exe!

But seriously...Best way to do this is over the phone. Read the file to him bit by bit, but before hand and over PGP IM of your choice decide on code words for the 1s and 0s and whether you will start at the end or the beginning and whether only ever other bit is real the other a dummy.
