Sorry, how could I forget to include the URL: 
http://199.103.168.8:2215/web1/hak/netcat.html

Maybe http://www.google.com is also a good shot, it gives me 
http://www.l0pht.com/~weld/netcat/ as first hit for netcat. The also have a 
NT Version for you. Take it! Read the documentation.

Cheers, Hartmut
