Thanks gabbe,

You are right in every aspect and I've had most of them up for concideration one time or another. I will now comment the suggestions.

Disable automatic shutdown when manual input detected could be an option - I'll think it over.

Using windows internal shut down timers won't work since the active wake-up-timer prevents system from going into sleep. (maybe this can be resolved)

Havn't checked this out yet but in theory you should leave the "forced shutdown" (in PS confiq) unchecked and any good written services or other program would have the don't-allow-to-shutdown-now-bit set which prevents the shutdown from being executed.

This could be done but I'm not sure it's worth the time.
I'll stick with the inside MP solotion for now.
But hey, it's opensource , someone else may think it's worth the time.
