By default, Telnet is not installed with Windows Vista,
but you can install it by following the steps below.

To install Telnet Client:

Click the Start button , click Control Panel, click Programs and Features,
and then click Turn Windows features on or off. If you are prompted for
an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

In the Windows Features dialog box, select the Telnet Client check box.
Click OK. The installation might take several minutes.
