netcat should do the job quite fine (provided that our Win32 has the 
necessary console support to run it - netcat's author is actually proud of 
having used only the lowest level possible calls to interface with the 
console). Here's the help screen:

[v1.10 NT]
connect to somewhere:   nc [-options] hostname port[s] [ports] ...
listen for inbound:     nc -l -p port [options] [hostname] [port]
options:
         -d              detach from console, stealth mode

         -e prog         inbound program to exec [dangerous!!]
         -g gateway      source-routing hop point[s], up to 8
         -G num          source-routing pointer: 4, 8, 12, ...
         -h              this cruft
         -i secs         delay interval for lines sent, ports scanned
         -l              listen mode, for inbound connects
         -L              listen harder, re-listen on socket close
         -n              numeric-only IP addresses, no DNS
         -o file         hex dump of traffic
         -p port         local port number
         -r              randomize local and remote ports
         -s addr         local source address
         -t              answer TELNET negotiation
         -u              UDP mode
         -v              verbose [use twice to be more verbose]
         -w secs         timeout for connects and final net reads
         -z              zero-I/O mode [used for scanning]
port numbers can be individual or ranges: m-n [inclusive]
