Answer : net send to others ip address

A few points.
1. Net Send will only work with Windows NT, 2000, XP on the receiving PC.
2. Many people will turn off net send service due to the spam pop-ups that are occuring more and more.
3. ISP are likely to start blocking the service due to the problems it causes
4. It does work if the service is available at both ends and nothing blocks it on its path through internet.

net send xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx hello

Should work subject to the above list.
