NET SEND is pretty fun, my project for my operating systems class in university was to write a firewall driver/accompanying program that would silently log all these messages to disk and flash the tray icon.

My high school had a security program like fortress, but on MacOS. The thing is, it had some sort NET SEND like facility that was exposed through AppleScript, and of course the AppleScript application wasn't disallowed. Good fun.
