The message service is started by default on NT. Unless you (sys admin)
have set it to not start, it will be there !

Start winpopup on the w95 by all means, however be warned, it will
certainly encourage people to play with it ! Not only does it receive
messages, it also sends them ! You also need to instruct your users not to
close it down, as is all too easy to do.... Just put a shortcut to winpopup
in the startup group  to be really simple.

I guess it depends on the situation you are in.
