I probably shouldn't even answer this because it isn't the answer that you are looking for....not exactly anyway.
1. Turn off telnet it is a very VERY insecure way to connect to a remote system.
2. Turn on SSH and use SSH2 to connect instead of telnet. It will be encrypted so (hopefully), nobody will be able to easily grab your login and password to hack your computer.
If you need to know where to get an client to use to connect via SSH, you can go to http://www.vandyke.com/download/securecrt/index.html to get Secure CRT. There are many other programs out there, but this is the one that I use and I like it. That doesn't mean it is any better or any worse than any other SSH Client.
