The Win95 telnet is an abomination. Is there a well written one available
for download somewhere?
Windows is an abomination. However, when I've been forced to
work with it and needed a telnet I always used QVT Telnet. See:

for reviews of various Windows telnet apps, and:

for the WinQVT home page. This is shareware, not freeware.
For an _excellent_ freeware telnet, I recommend NetBSD or Linux.
