Shut Down PC With SMS

A mobile trick that is used to shut down your PC by sending an SMS. By sending a simple SMS as "Shutdown" from your mobile. This then makes your system shut down. First, you create an easy text file with a one line command (this is specified in the video) and save it to your hard drive. Then, you set up a  Kwiry  account and sync it with your Email account which you have set up in  Outlook Express. A rule must then be created in Outlook Express which will detect any incoming emails with that keyword and then execute the shutdown command in the text file when it does. By sending a text with the keyword to your Kwiry account, an identical email is sent to your own email account, thus you can shut down your PC via SMS when you’re out and about. It’s best to choose an obscure word so a normal email doesn’t accidentally shut down your PC.
