 Steve Mulder: I tried Dshutdown on my network. It doesn't work. Apparently it makes alot of assumptions, i.e. certain ports being open,etc. Not recommended. [2007-03-19 10:59]

 dapobe: Great util! You can stop different servers from different domains from a single computer (using password)

Great for automatic stop scripts ( UPS etc...) [2007-08-03 04:11]

 sirrogerthat: I'd definitely pick this utility over PowerOff.
I like to schedule downloads on more than one application, so automatically shutting down in one program will interrupt the other.
By using bandwidth monitoring in DShutdown this is no longer an issue. [2007-08-12 03:24]

 Max Works: When I run Avast anti-virus on this programme it tells me that it contains a Trojan Horse called Win32:Spyware-gen [Trj].
Can anyone confirm that this is correct? If so, perhaps it shouldn't be on the site. (ps... thanks Andrew - your site is my top site after BBC !) [2008-07-01 12:59]

 Doobedoo: ESET always blocks with false positive! Teach that guy's that it isn't! [2009-01-05 02:38]

All HTML tags will be removed from your comment. URLs (http, https, ftp) will be automatically detected and hyperlinked. I reserve the right to delete irrelevant, frivolous or offensive comments. For more general topics (eg. whether apps that write to the registry, leave traces on the host machine, rely on certain versions of IE etc. can be considered portable), please post to the Portable Freeware Discussion forum. If your virus scanner has detected a virus in the application, please email the author directly or post to the forum. Note that false positives (i.e. flagging a virus when there is actually none) are extremely common for virus scanners. When in doubt, try an online scanner like Online Malware Scanner or VirusTotal, which scans files using multiple anti-virus engines. It is very likely to be a false positive if only a few engines raise the red flag.
