1) All you need is your friend's IP Address and your Command Prompt.

2) Open Notepad and write this code as it is.....!

@echo off
:A
Cls
echo MESSENGER
set /p n=User:
set /p m=Message:
net send %n% %m%
Pause
Goto A


3) Now save this as "Messenger.Bat".

4) Open Command Prompt.

5) Drag this file (.bat file) over to Command Prompt and press Enter.

6) You would then see something like this:

So lets say I want to chat with my son on another computer as I need him to do something on that pc, do I use the internal ip address?
 
Used to be able to do this with DxDiag (Network tab) on Windows XP, at school.
