I can open Telnet, but still does not work, I cannot connect to anything at all, and yes before you say I do have an internet connection.

@Nige: Telnet is a command line program.

Run cmd.exe, AKA the "command prompt" - you can search for it in the Vista Start Menu by either name. It's often referred to as a DOS prompt.

Type "telnet" (no quotes) and hit .

It can also be run directly from C:WindowsSystem32telnet.exe

doktor, this tells you how to install telnet, not how to use it. Your error suggests the remote machine is not accepting connections.

Whoever decided to remove telnet from a default Windows install has a lot to answer for!
