Telnet may not be installed by default. I have had to copy it from another
machine occasionally to get it available. I have heard mention that it's not
installed as part of one of the 95 OSR versions, other people say it's not
installed unless you install a network adaptor (Ethernet or dial up), and
install a protocol (TCP/IP seems to be the consensus of opinion). Whatever
the case, when I couldn't find it, it was a case of just going to the web,
and searching for it.
If you want a prettier one, then places like zdnet have got lots of
different versions. Take your pick. Although if you ever find one that can
support transparent backgrounds, (inspired by an X windows screen grab of
Linux!) let me know.

Telnet should be in the windows directory. Hyperterminal may not be
installed by default. Hyper is a bit more flexible I think.
To get telnet to run this usually works:
Start: Run: type telnet: OK
