XP itself will do it using it's built in shutdown command.

Type shutdown /? at a command prompt for details.

All you'll need to do is make a batch file with "shutdown
-s" or "shutdown -r" etc in it.

To shut down make a single line textfile with:

shutdown -s -t 00
(Note: The last two characters are zeros)

Name the file Off.cmd and put it on your desktop.

I can't help with reboot.

The reboot command is similar:
shutdown -r -t 0

For reboot, change the -s to -r.
