If you can see the other computer, you may use the Net Send Command :

net send name_of_user_or_computer message_text

EDIT

In Vista or Windows 7, the "net send" command can be replaced by msg.exe:

msg * /server:other-computer "message_text"

	I never tried it in Vista/Win7 so didn't notice it got phased out. See my edit for an alternative. – harrymc Dec 20 '09 at 9:04
	I Can't see the other computer. I just can use it's router to connect to inter net. He forgot to set security on his wireless router. – Wahid Bitar Dec 20 '09 at 13:07
	Once you connect to his network, regard your IP via "ipconfig". If it is something like 192.168.0.X then the router is in 192.168.0.1. You might try to ping him at lower numbers like 192.168.0.2 etc. msg also works with IP addresses. – harrymc Dec 20 '09 at 15:14
