I would recommend NTFS. It actually works better than FAT (A copy of Windows 2000 on my system works faster on NTFS than on FAT) and is interoperable between Windows NT 4, 2000, and XP. NTFS also offers better file management (Less fragmentation) added security (NTFS5 is required to have File Encryption), and Limitless files sizes.
Mozilla in scary movie? that is scary! (/me imagines it crashing...)
Windows: Start->Run :: Telnet :: Telnet
Linux(KDE): K->Run Command
(I believe that should do it)
If you don't like the windows built in client, try using PuttyTEL (Google for it). Its a nice client.
