the problem with those net send msgs is that they dont go away even after a reboot.. and i think if u send them to a username instead to a computer name.. the msgs is stored on serve if the user is not logged into any machine and r delivered to the user once he log in from any terminal

Like I said, is not necessary, just stop the Messenger service, which will be done automatically with xp SP2. There are better methods out there for Network Notification then the messenger service.
