     If you are planning to telnet through the proxy server, a proxy client 
     must be used.  Telnet is not a proxyable (word?) protocol and must be 
     encapsulated using a client of some sort.  A popular method is to use 
     a SOCKS client if you have a SOCKS compatible proxy server or 
     firewall. A free SOCKS client can be downloaded from the NEC web site 
     at www.socks.nec.com. (no affiliation)  We have several installations 
     using the SOCKS client successfully.  I do not know if MS proxy server 
     support SOCKS, but it does support Telnet through the MS proxy server 
     client.  Good Luck!
