Shutdown ICON

[Lisa Murphy]

How can I make the command line comand "SHUTDOWN.EXE -S" into a desktop
Icon? I have a laptop that I use as a terminal to control an XP PRO pc. I
want to be able to shutdown pc power without typing the command line.

So what happens when you right-click on the desktop and select New to make a
shortcut that runs the command?
