quick shut down

I used to have a quick shut down option on my Start menu
in Win98. It was just a shortcut with a target value of
C:\WINDOWS\RUNDLL.EXE User.exe,exitwindows

This won't work on XP and I miss the convience of one-
click shutting down. Does anyone know a shortcut that
works on XP?

If you're willing, please email your response, too. I'm
more likely to catch your response that way -- especially
if days pass.

Use the SHUTDOWN command. For details type
SHUTDOWN /?
at a DOS prompt.

this work?
