I am trying to install software that uses it's own telnet service to connect

port 23. Is there any way to see what else is using port 23? I do not have
the Microsoft Telnet service running. An older version of this software had
been running on my laptop. I have downloaded the Internet Explorer Beta 7b. I
don't think I tried using the software since installing IE 7. I can't find
any documentation that shows how to see what is using this port. Any help
would be greatly appreciated

It does sound like you have a telnet app running, do a google for a
product called activeports, it will graphically display all processes
and the ports that they use.
I assume this is a windows box as you specifed "Microsoft Telnet", if
linux there is a command already available.

here is a link
