As long as it's done in such a way that it doesn't seem to similar to that
nasty little virus that was around a couple of years ago -- which
INVOLUNTARILY shut it down for you!

Yes please. I run my cleanup/spyware/defragmenting etc at night when i am
asleep and I would really like to be able to set my PC to shut down either:
a) When program XXXXXX.exe closes or
b) After X/X/XX hours/minutes/seconds

WinRAR has a feature that allows you to shut down your PC when it has
completed an archive this really should be a simple addition I would think.
(oo oo can you give it a fancy run command similar to the windows calculator
so I can Windows Key+R and "Timer" it really fast?

Thank you!
