Need to know why?
Do you need the program or the user interact with the event?
I still think you will need a timer.

You could use command line NetSend  to send a oneway message to all users
or to specific machine names
Sending System Messages using NetMessageBufferSend

If you use the Windows Messenger Service to distribute broadcast
messages to users on your network, chances are good that you're doing
it the hard way--from the command line via the DOS-based Net Send
command.

But hidden deep within the Windows XP operating system is the Send
Console Message tool, which works just like the old WinPopup utility in
Windows 9x. Unfortunately, Microsoft hid it so well that most IT
professionals don't know it exists.

Here's how to uncover and use the Send Console Message tool. Follow
these steps:

1. Go to Start | Control Panel, and double-click Administrative Tools.
2. Double-click Computer Management.
3. Go to Action | All Tasks | Send Console Message.

Windows will open the Send Console Message tool, but you need to add
computer names to the Recipients list. Follow these steps:

1. Click the Add button.
2. In the Select Computer dialog box, click Advanced.
3. Click Find Now.
4. Select the computers, and click OK to exit both dialog boxes.

You can now type messages in the Message text box and click the Send
button to broadcast messages to the users on your network.
