telnet vs ssl



Hi, im wondering about the security of telnet - people say its really unsecure...does this mean that someone would need to be running a network sniffer on my ip to catch the data?

I telnet to my ISP from work, (only telnet available) then run SSH from ISP shell to home machine....is this just as insecure as a straight connection via telnet right to my home machine?

Thanks -Ethan
