I just tried it your way, and it worked fine for me. The problem might be:

1) The BioMOO might have been down at the time.

2) You're trying an rlogin connection instead of telnet. Make sure the
radio-button next to "telnet" is active in the WinQvt dialog box.

3) Make sure you have entered 8888 in the IP port.

General recommendations:

1) Don't use an IP number. Use (in this case) bioinfo.weizmann.ac.il

2) Get a MUD client. Telnet is not that great for MOOing.

Hope this helped,
