By "securely" do you mean you want to make sure the data gets passed, or do you mean that you want it encrypted? Both would use the the query string, but the latter involves the second step of encrypting and decrypting the data.
I was not particularly impressed with the 4GuysFromRolla article that Stephen linked to -- what is the point of the base class? I guess it's so that he can have a SessionParameterPasser class, but it seems to me to be over-architected. Anyway, I have a QueryStringBuilder class that uses an internal NameValueCollection (which Request.QueryString is) which is more robust than the article's. Email me off-list if you're interested (I have .NET 1.1 and 2.0 versions). As for encryption, I also happen to have a class for that, but unless the data is really sensitive (e.g., credit card number), I probably wouldn't waste the CPU cycles on it. A simple Base64 string might be enough for your purposes.
