- Sorry dude, my mistake. This restarts windows and doesn't reboot. If
- you change the configuration to reboot it asks if you wish to exit. I
- am real tired, but I really do think someone has made a util for this
- that works in a dos box and in batch files. They make a tray util for
- rebooting, but I don't know if this program works from a batch. I am
- almost positive someone has written a program that works the same as
- reboot.com. Later........
