    Default Software to shut my pc down

    As the title says, I was wondering if there is any software that will automatically shut my PC down to a time that I specify.

    My internet usage is unmetered between 1am-6am and I want to be able to shut the PC down at 6am.

    Is there anything out there that can aid me in this?

    I take it you are running Windows XP?
    If so you can use the Task Scheduler to Schedule a shutdown.

    Start/All Programs/Accessories/System Tools/Scheduled Tasks

    Then use this command - C:\Windows\System32\shutdown.exe

    Haven't used it, but it's meant to be okay.

    Thanks for the quick replies guys.

    I found a program called Shutdown Machine 1.1.

    It does exactly what I want and the best thing is I don't even have to install it. Just have to click an exe file when I want to use it and that it.

    Have some K+ for the help.
