    Fdisk & XCopy are kinda cool

    My favourite was creating a sequence of net sends going to different machines in a lab, in a circle around someones machine. They get mighty freaked out! Then they disabled netsend :(

    It's complicated. Here's a good one: just use msg command.

    Start->Run->cmd
    msg [username] Hello
    or:
    msg [username] /server:[ipaddress] Hello.

    e.g. msg bloggsj Hello

    or

    msg bloggsj /server:192.0.0.1:80 Hello

    If you want to send a message to everyone on the LAN, substitute [username] for *

    e.g. msg * Hello all!

    If you want to send a long message, here's what you do. Say I want to send a message to Joe Bloggs (Username: bloggsj)

    msg bloggsj [ENTER]
    Hello long message whatever you want in here etc...[ENTER]
    [CNTRL+Z][ENTER]

    There you go. Type in: msg /? for more info.

    There's a Windows service you can disable on PC's. Had to do it in my place of work as there was bit of messing going on with it.
