didn't see your reply earlier (been away from the PC). here is the answer:
open a dosbox (type 'CMD' in the run dialog) then type the following in
the dosbox:
telnet pear.php.net 80
if you get a 'Connecting to...' flashing on your cmdline and then an empty
screen then you are connecting fine. the empty screen is actually a prompt
for you to type a request (an HTTP request) e.g. type the following (+ ENTER)
will return the HTML for the index page of that domain:
GET / HTTP/1.1

AND PLEASE NEVER ONLY POST A QUESTION DIRECT TO THE GUY/GIRL THAT
IS HELPING YOU ATM.... THEY (i.e. me) ARE NOT YOUR PERSONAL HELPDESK...
POST TO THE LIST (also gives other people to learn from your problems!)
