I enabled telnet in widows 7 and when I type in CMD: telnet www.example.com 80 the screen clears and then I cannot see what I am typing. Although I can trace the cursor which moves with every character typed. I saw this link which was the most relevant. However, when I type GET / HTTP/1.0 nothing happens and when I press ctrl+] it does not accept GET / HTTP/1.0. What should I do to see the page?
