Ok, so we all know about this annoying program that comes with windows. How does one use it? I'm trying to scare my completely computer illiterate friend. You know, convince him that the computer is talking to him or something. Does anyone know how to send messages with him? I've got his IP address and everything already.

Netsend messages via telnet.

Any idea what a good client is? Never used telnet before.

I believe the command is something like /msg, but I'm rusty on my telnet. The help files with some telnet programs ought to have information on how.
