auto shutdown

[sam]

i want to set a scheduled task to shut down my computer.
i've gotten some previous help, and was told to run the
command "rundll32 shell32,SHExitWindowsEx 0" when I try
to run this command i get the error message: Error in
shell32 Missing entry:SHExitWindowsEx how
can i fix this, or what do i need to run to shut it
down? thanks

shutdown -s -t 0

And that shuts it down.

C:\WINDOWS\system32\shutdown.exe -s -t 0

Shell32.dll in Windows XP does not have an entry-point SHExitWindowsEx. Your best option is to use the shutdown.exe command. Type shutdown /? in the Command Prompt for more information

Example: Shutdown -s -t 00
This will initiate the shutdown process immediately (0 second timeout).
