Under Win95 and Win98, you'll be able make your system shutdown (and poweroff), log off, hibernate or reboot. However, under WinNT/Win2000, you can make your system shutdown (i.e. to safe to switch off screen, poweroff, log off, hibernate or reboot.)

One particularly useful feature is The Force Close option which assures you that the system will be shut down, no matter what processes are activated in your system.
