Just as a side note: do you _really_ want to connect
to your home via telnet? This protocoll is _extremely_
insecure and you are sending your password in cleartext
over the net (read: insecure ground). SSH is a much better
tool for such needs (and much harder to crack) and afaik the
terminal emulation is far better in windows ssh than in win-telnet.
