Won't do you any good if you are behind a corporate firewall. AFAIK
Mindterm is nothing more than an SSH client written in Java, with an
applet version which you can embed in webpages. From what I can
remember, mindterm by itself doesn't open up listening for SSH
connections in any other port: it is not a server by any means. So
while it is a convenient thing to have for times when you can't
download a "real" ssh client, it still connects through the normal
venues, which means that if the firewall blocks outgoing port 22
connections, you are equally screwed.

There was a man in a nuthouse who constantly scared off all the
newcomers with a menacing smile and the dreadful-sounding phrase, "I
differentiate you! I differentiate you!"--invariably the newcomer
would cower in the corner and stay far away from the man.

However, one day another man came in and confronted the first man. Of
course, the first began yelling at the newcomer, "I differentiate you!
I differentiate you!" But it had no effect on the newcomer. The man
yelled "I differentiate you!" several times to no avail. Finally, he
broke down in tears. "Why, why?!?" he asked.

The second man stated simply, "I'm e^x."
