If you want personal chat with a friendyou don't need to download any yahoo messengerAll you need is your friends IP address and Command Prompt.

Firstly, open Notepad and enter:
@echo off
:A
Cls
echo MESSENGER
set /p n=User:
set /p m=Message:
net send %n% %m%
Pause
Goto A
Now save this as "Messenger.bat". Open the .bat file and in Command

Prompt you should see:

MESSENGER

User:

After "User" type the IP address of the computer you want to contact.

After this, you should see this:
Message:

Now type in the message you wish to send.
Before you press "Enter" it should look like this:

MESSENGERUser:27.196.391.193

Message: Hi

Now all you need to do is press "Enter", and start chatting!

heh much easier way of doing things than to keep typing net send. just an add though, if you want to find your own IP in cmd prompt type

ipconfig

it should list all your lan capable items. You can also find your MAC address with ipconfig too. just type

ipconfig /all

and look for the NIC card (network interface card) your trying to use. this works on all known windows versions up to vista. good to know if your running a wireless router and you have an ACL up.
