If you are using Windows XP, you can use shutdown.exe. It's in the system32 folder.

Code:
[SIZE="2"]Go to Scheduled Tasks in the Control Panel

> right click > New > Scheduled Task

> rename the task to auto shutdown (or whatever name you want)

> right click the task > Properties

> Task tab 

> check Run only if logged on

> Apply

> in the Run field enter:

[B][COLOR="Red"]C:\Windows\[/COLOR]system32\shutdown.exe -s -t xx -c "your comment" -f[/B]

> Apply

> Schedule tab > set the time and day when you want the task to be run

> OK
[/SIZE]
where:
s = shutdown
t = time, xx = number of seconds before shutdown
c = comment ( " " are necessary to display your comment)
f = force programs to shutdown

Depending on which drive\folder you have installed XP, you will have to accordingly change the path ( C:\Windows )
