			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have never seen that many shutdown options in my life. That was my first thought when I saw a screenshot of <a href="http://dimio.altervista.org/eng/">Dshutdown</a>, a software created by the Italian programmer Dimio. It offers normal shutdown options like shutting down at a specific time or when a program is closed. These are normal shutdown options that many programs offer but here are some that you might have never heard of before.</p>
<p>What about shutting down a computer when a pixel changes its color, if the user is inactive for a certain amount of time, shutting down when a shutdown request has been intercepted, if a upload, download speed is reached or a process is using more or less than a specified amount of CPU usage.</p>
<p>You might have asked yourself why a shutdown program would intercept a shutdown request. It&#8217;s pretty easy to explain, DShutdown allows to configure customized shutdowns. It is for instance possible to execute a program, backup or temp file clearer for instance, before shutting down. Users can define the type of shutdown, do you want to go into hibernation, power off, log off for instance or write a log file.</p>

<p>It is furthermore possible to remotely shutdown computers, this means that you can shutdown more than one computer if one of them receives a shutdown command. Awesome software, 200 Kilobyte, no installation needed.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://users.pandora.be/jbosman/poweroff/poweroff.htm">Power Off</a> is a freeware for Microsoft Windows that makes it easy to control the power state &#8211; that is on, off, standby and so on &#8211; on a local or remote computer. You could for instance configure it to set a certain power state when a process ends or scheduled for a day or time.</p>
<p>And this is where it begins to be interesting. It is for instance possible to use Power Off to schedule work times for your children&#8217;s PC. If you do not want them to play or work with it after 6 pm you could simply configure Power Off to shutdown the PC at that time.</p>
<p>I can think of several uses for running it on local computers as well. You might want to run defrag during the day which takes some time if you got big defragmented hard drives. It would be possible to use Power Off to turn off the computer after defrag finished the defragmentation of the hard drives.</p>
