Looking for a Java applet to do TelNet

I am looking for a FREE java applet that will turn my browser into a telnet
client. I found "The Java Telnet Applet (JTA)"
http://www.first.fraunhofer.de/persons/leo/java/Telnet/ , but this only
allows telnet connections with the server hosting the web site and serving
the java applet (I dont want to get into relaying).

I would like to connect to my web site (hosted by an ISP) and be able to
telnet into my office server. I know that I can use the telnet program in
Windows, but I would like be able to connect from an internet cafe or other
public terminal.

If any one can point me to an applet I would appreciate it.

TIA

That's a restriction that all proper browsers place on all unsigned
applets.

You would need a signed applet.
