those of us that are IT admins and directors still have to use it for remote admin of devices and appliances such as routers, firewalls, vpns, etc

Putty!

It is by far and wide one of the best telnet clients for Windows... it comes with tonnes of features, including an SSH client.

The download page is here :

Direct link to the file you want :

http://the.earth.li/~sgtatham/putty/latest...t/x86/putty.exe

Hope that helps! :)

Amen.

I actually prefer Telnet for doing remote admin.. you can get so much done from the command line, instead of using some crappy web control panel! :)

additionally, if you have ever tried using the gui interface that comes with cisco firewalls, you would know how crappy it really is and the benefit that telnet offers for this task.
