@Abhishek,
Nice idea, but there are lots of softwares for this purpose and listing all of them is not possible, otherwise I would have included.

hey nice theme man, if you dont mind i have a suggestion.
Header image looks distorted (i didnt get the right term, i think u got what i mean) becoz of the jpeg compression. you can use a 10px PNG as header background and overlay logo on that. It saves loading time.

@Binny,
Thanks for that tip. I’ll try it out.

@Pallab,
This software is 300kb, but has less options than the one you have suggested. I’ll definitely try it out.

I used to use another freeware called AMP WinOFF. Its less than 500kb and provides a lot more optoins, like disonnecting your internet connection, logging off, restarting, putting your computer in standby or hibernate mode.
Download it from http://www.ampsoft.net/utilities/WinOFF.php

Try this command
shutdown -s -t 20

This will shutdown the system in 20 seconds. For more info…

Btw, I could not test it – I am on Linux
