Greetings Clint,

Actually, there is no real Windows-based interface. You can use the "net send" command to
send these types of messages. To do so,
click the Start button, then click Run, and enter:
net send computername themessage

Where the computername is the computer name of the person you're sending to, and themessage
is the message you want to send.

If you do want an interface to do all this, check out Lantalk XP:
