Yes. If your host is 2000/XP, you can use net send. There is also shareware you can read about.
Windows 2000/XP clients need the "Messenger" service enabled in services.msc
Windows 9x/Me clients need winpopup running. (Winpopup should be in the WINDOWS or System folder, and you can put a shortcut to it in the Startup folder.)

hi, i'd like to add someting here... after enabling WinPopup service in ur Windows ME Machine, what you need to do is... open a DOS window and type:
net send * hello frends
note: u cna replace the "hello frends" text with the message u want to send. :)
by doin this, you will be able to send the message to all the terminals in ur network. :)
post here if u have any other queries regarding this, okies? cheers!
