In depth
A closer look at PowerControl
This program quickly and simply will allow you to make Shutdown, Reboot, Hibrnete, Logoff, Standby, Lock the local or removed computer (or several computers). As you may may awake the removed computer with the help of function Wake-On-LAN. You can specify a delay, which can either be an absolute time (eg. 8pm) or a relative time (eg. "20 minutes from now"), during which a message you specify can be displayed. Alternatively you can specify a shutdown without warning. Applications running on the target machine(s) at the time of shutdown can be allowed to close, or can be terminated immediately. Whilst a delayed remote shutdown is taking place, you can abort the shutdown of any or all of the workstations on the shutdown list. You can also perform a delayed shutdown of your own (local) machine, with optional support for APM / ACPI power-off
