Does anyone remember how to send a message in that alert style over a network? I cannot for t he life of me remember.

*pulls out hair*

EDIT: Since I seem to be making no sense. I'll try to clarify. There's a way to send a message to other users on your computer network. When it pops up it looks like a standard windows alert.

Heh. Some of us were still using punch cards and paper rolls when we were at school. No idea what you're talking about either.

I thought that was removed with some Windows Update (at least in XP, which is what I assume you're talking about) because it was being used for pop-up ads.

Crap, that would explain it. (reading through my help topics, you appear to be right). I wonder if there is a way to turn it back on, because it really is quite handy.
