History[edit]
Lan Messenger
A precursor of LAN Messengers is the Unixtalk command, and similar facilities on earlier systems,[1] which enabled multiple users on one host system to directly talk with each other. At the time, computers were usually shared between multiple users, who accessed them through serial or telephone lines.
Novell NetWare featured a trivial person-to-person chat program for DOS, which used the [IPX/SPX] protocol suite. NetWare for Windows also included broadcast and targeted messages similar to WinPopup and the Windows Messenger service.
On Windows, WinPopup was a small utility included with Windows 3.11. WinPopup uses SMB/NetBIOS protocol and was intended to receive and send short text messages.
Windows NT/2000/XP improves upon this with Windows Messenger service, a Windows service compatible to WinPopup.[2] On systems where this service is running, the received messages 'pop up' as simple message boxes. Any software compatible with WinPopup, like the console utility NET SEND, can send such messages. However, due to security concerns,[3] by default, the messenger service is off in Windows XP SP2 and blocked by Windows XP's firewall.
