Hello, why almost everytime when I connect to the host using telnet, it says "connection to host lost" ?Thank you.

Who/what are you trying to connect to?

I tried to connect to www.coolfreepages.com using the telnet provided in winMe. It's a Linux server.

That'd be why.

As far as I know, coolfreepages.com doesn't let you do that. By all means correct me if I am wrong but I don't know of any free hosts that let you connect via telnet/ssh/raw.
