Check out PC Magazine, January 12, 88 Vol. 7 Number 1.
There is a whole section on data transfer programs that would meet
your needs.  Not all support parallel file transfer though. Here
are some that do:

     Direc-link     (213)377-1640
     Paranet        (613)236-1487 
     File Shuttle   (800)663-8066
