The new Start Menu from Windows XP contains a free space on the right side just below the Run command.

The "Add Shutdown" reg file adds an Shutdown icon with an enhanced context menu (right click menu).
This icon uses NirCmd to execute the commands, NirCmd is a great little free Command Line Tool 
(it does'nt run in the background) and it's included in the zip file.

Install: merge "Add Shutdown.reg" and copy NirCmd.* to your System32 directory.
If you want to use the Undock PC command (laptop), edit "Add Shutdown.reg" and remove the ; character 
before the last 4 lines, save and merge it & copy "Undock PC.vbs" to your System32 directory. 
Merge "Remove Default Buttons.reg" if you want to remove the default Shutdown, Logoff and Undock PC 
buttons from the Start Menu ("Restore Default Buttons.reg" restores them).
Restart your computer to apply the changes.

Uninstall: merge "Remove Shutdown.reg" and remove NirCmd.* & "Undock PC.vbs" from your System32 directory.
Merge "Restore Default Buttons.reg" to restore the default  Shutdown, Logoff and Undock PC buttons.
Restart your computer to apply the changes.
