I don't think it's actually built into windows. You're opening a telnet session to a server and it's reading the data from there into the command line window you have just opened. I've tried the exactly the same thing in Terminal on my mac and see it too.

Regardless, it is rather clever, and somone had far, far to much time on their hands.

Indeed, our firewall won't allow telnet sessions so I can't access it.

Luckily, there are programs you can get on the 'net that'll do the conversion for you...
