Next time you are in need or a Telnet or SSH client, give PuTTY a try. If you want to access a computer remotely with the command line, then SSH is the way to go, and PuTTY is a great client. It even handles some of the more advanced (and useful) SSH features like tunneling. Of course, for the majority of people who don't have a SSH server they want to connect to, PuTTY is still handy for connecting to clear text Telnet servers (like MUDs or Multi-User Dungeons for you non-gamers).
You can get a copy of PuTTY here, as well as some other useful SSH/Telnet/Rlogin utilities.
Just one more free utility everyone should know about ;-)
