    its great and i have no problem paying the $25 to purchase it

    ZOC, the good old BBSing terminal emulator. It has ful lscreen support, big characters or characterset/font selection, adaptive windows, and hundreds (literally) of options to configure, as well as good old file transfer protocols (Zmodem, etc).
    It does telnet and SSH1/SSH2 veeeeeeeeeery well.

    One more vote for putty. It's probably the most secure of the free ones, and I love the ability to "duplicate this session".. one click to open a new window. Handy stuff.

    I used to use Tera Term, and it's an option if you don't need the latest encryption algorithms.

    BTW, any SSH program that offers or allows a password to be stored should be instantly uninstalled.

    Putty all the way the only wish was I could store IP's so I could just select one and it pops up with that in the little box would be a time saver, or at least for security it misses out 2 digets and you fill them it.

    But other then that go Putty lol

    The problem with Putty is that it doesn't save login info so you have to enter it every time. That is why I prefer Secure CRT.

    I hope you mean ssh - you should NEVER login to your servers using telnet

    Putty is the best

    Telnet has its uses. I use it quite a bit.

    Usually to port 80... 110... sometimes 25
