There's always GnuPG. GPG itself is command-line-only but there's several
good Windows front ends to be had. There's also the GPG4Win project which
bundles GnuPG with a selection of supporting software and a couple
"handbooks", in a nice-n-easy installer.

PGP 6.5.8 CKT is still available at Zedz.
ftp://ftp.zedz.net/pub/crypto/pgp/pgp60/pgp658_ckt/
The "DOS" versioin of pgp2.6.3i can be found here.

PGP Inc. offers a "30 day trial" version (Really PGP v8.something) that
after expiration no longer allows use of PGPDisk. En/decrypt and all
the digital signature functions still work however, and as I understand
it using them is "perfectly legal".

Of all the choices recommend GnuPG. It's open source, completely free and
legal to use without question, well tested, and backwards compatible with
older versions of PGP/GnuPG while still offering functionality that goes
above and beyond what PGP offers (save for the disk encryption which you
have to pay for and can get elsewhere anyway).
As far as remailer use goes it's compatible as long as you don't generate
some of the more "advanced" types of keys GnuPG can generate. PGP really
doesn't come into play all that much for remailer usage anyway, unless
you're using Type I remailers. And the only reason for using those would
be for Nymservers and "reply blocks". The Type II or "Mixmaster" network
uses encryption that's handled by the Mixmaster software itself.
