Windows Messaging
Posted by John on January 2nd, 2005


Hello.

I don't want anyone to get confused with the MSN Messenger, the
Instant messaging program, but I am wondering about Windows
Messaging...

Was there a program called "Windows messaging" were you could send a
message to a user on a computer on the same network and a Windows
pop-up box with the message would show up?

This may have been on Windows 3.1 or 95... I can't remember exactly,
but is there still anything like this, that serves this purpose?

Thanks

John

NET SEND name message

It won't work if the messenger service (erroneously called "windows
messenger service") is not running, and you'd be mad to enable it if you're
not sitting behind a NAT or firewall.

Install Trillian on each PC and trillian will pick users up using

and send files.

Windows 2000. Yes it is there in 2K and I think XP.

Are you looking at getting rid of it, or do you want a different
software that does the same thing?

What OS is the server (where you'll make the messages), and what OS is
the client computers (the ones who will receive it).?

Do not attempt to adjust your settings.
I am now controlling your PC.
I control the horizontal scrollbar, and the vertical one.
I can deluge you with a thousand movies,
or expand one single JPG to crystal clarity and beyond.
I can shape your vision to anything my imagination can conceive.
For the next post I will control all that you see and hear.
You are about to experience the awe and the mystery
which reaches from my deepest inner mind to,
the Outer Limits.

Please stand by.

Sorry for not replying sooner. I was really busy last week and

work
