LAN Messenger

[Guest]

Hi Everyone

In Win98 and earlier versions, there was a LAN messenger that was called WINPOP. I am building systems for an office, and can't remember if there is anything like that in WIN 2k?

Can anyone help?

No. That program is gone. Windows NT/2000 use the messenger service to xmit popup messages. There are third party apps that use the messenger service and may provide the funtionality you are used to.

In the mean time, try this from a command prompt: NET SEND /?

You can send popups with it:
NET SEND somepc "Your message here"
