a program that i can put in quick launch to log off (no need to put it in
system tray as if thats all this is doing then why take up resources) but
log off without prompting user (forced quick log off)...

....of course i'd probably be able to write this in a batch file but
wondering if something out there already exists.

In 98SE this works make a shortcut named exit, right click desktop,
click new, use this
C:\WINDOWS\RUNDLL32.EXE USER,EXITWINDOWS 8
Click to expand...

for the command line.
for the icon look in
C:\WINDOWS\Progman.exe
Click to expand...
for a door with an arrow pointing out.
I think that will do the job..

And in WinXP, create a new destop shortcut with the following:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\shutdown.exe -s -t 0

Why bother with the Quicklaunch tray, just press and release the Windows key
on the keyboard and then press the letter U twice!

Thought you'd like it.
It will do a lot more than what you were in need of.
As you have seen, handy little ASM proggy.

almost like the old norton BE program for DOS. :-)

now that i think about it i'll probably use it for more than just shutting
down my machine from a short cut :o)
