 * How to enable Telnet in Vista/Windows 7**

Telnet? What's that? If you don't know, you probably don't need it.

But if you're an old school computer user who still occasionally has need to telnet into another system on the network, you'll find that it's disabled by default in Windows 7 and Vista.

If you have another way to connect, you should use that, because **__telnet is not secure.__**

But if you still want your telnet back, here's how to get it:
 * 1) Click **Start** and select **Control Panel**.
 * 2) Click the **Programs and Features** applet.
 * 3) Click **Turn Windows features on or off**.
 * 4) Scroll down the list and find **Telnet Client** and click the checkbox.
 * 5) Click **OK**.

Now you'll be able to invoke a telnet session from the command prompt as you did in previous versions of Windows.
