Hey, I did some research on this topic yesterday, but didn't find anything.  I'm trying to have a universal script that will somehow display an alert message on all remote computers. I don't care how it has to be done, or how sloppy it may get at this point. 

I saw a WshController object, however, when that runs the remote script on the remote computers, its ran in hidden mode.  Therefore, it is not interactive with the user, so they won't see any GUI objects what-so-ever.  I even tried riggin something up with calling a batch file on the remote computer that will call a script.  Or even using a batch file to display the message.

The reason for this is I would like to display an alert on all user's computers alerting them(ie: "Print server is being restarted, printing will be unavailable for 5 minutes.").  So if anyone knows a work around to somehow get this done, any input is greatly appreciated.  Thank you!

Nope, but that seems like the best way to move forward with this.  Net send it is, thanks for the suggestion!
