click browse, find the file c:\windows\system32\shutdown.exe
replace c:\windows with whereever windows is installed on ur machine

Give it a name, choose perform daily,
choose the time, frequency
put the username of an administrator account and password

Check open advanced properties, click finish

under Run, add these switches:
-s -t 60
so the run box should look something likee:
c:\windows\system32\shutdown.exe -s -t 60

change 60 to any number of seconds you want to, this is how much time u will be given before the machine is killed. to abort a shutdown (once you get the window with the countdown) click start->run type shutdown -a

g'luck!

There are a few programs out there that can do this. I use one called power shutdown that works well.

Yeap it's better to find such a program because if I recall correctly(haven't used shutdown through scheduled task for ages) you'll have the annoying pop up window with the countdown, and I don't know if you can remove it

Yes you can...you just need to add some switches and it will do everything automatically. This Link has all the info.
