Power Down windows 7 after photoshop has finished

I need a good piece of software that will power off the computer once photoshop has finished batch actioning a lot of images.
Its so at work we can change our work flow so these tasks that usually take over an hour can be done after work hours but then won't leave the computers on until the next day.

You could look at this, not sure if it's exactly what you're looking for as I've not read it, but it does look like it could be something.

Also heard of something called Shutdown Monster, but I think that's about as useful as the Windows Standby Mode.

Why not simply make a scheduled task to run each night at a specific time?

Only problem with that is that the task could shutdown the machine, before photoshop has finished it's jobs for that night.
