Send Message
Using Send Message, you can communicate with your friends or your colleagues in other locations, send your greeting or notice or guidance to users on LAN or WAN. Provide many batch modes and make your "talk" more conveniently. No other server programs are required to be installed in remote machine. The function requires Messenger Service to be started on Windows NT/2000/XP computers to which the message is sent, and be started on local computer also. Please note that on Windows XP sp2 and Windows 2003 system the Messenger service is not started by default. For Windows 95/98/Me, the program Winpopup.exe should be running so to receive messages sent by other users. The Messenger service is not supported on Windows Vista or later, so this function is unusable.
