    found this link on another site……

    http://www.tinkernut.com/archives/44

    it allows you to shut down your pc from your mobile phone using outlooks rules/alerts.

    I’ve done mine differently in that i just send an email directly from my mobile to myself with the wording in the subject line for whatever i want to do, currently i have it either shutdown or else play a music file………..it can be adapted for many things and i’m sure some of those might actually be quite useful.

    the 2 .bat files i currently use are these:-

    for shutting the pc down.

    C:windowssystem32shutdown -s -f -t 00

    and for playing a music file….

    “C:Program FilesWindows Media Playerwmplayer.exe” /prefetch:1 “F:all mediaMy MusicMy Musiccollection 6White Lines.mp3”) -f -t 00

    i’m sure i could get it to open a game of 2142 for me:-

    “E:Program FilesElectronic ArtsBattlefield 2142BF2142.exe” +menu 1 +fullscreen 1 +szx 1280 +szy 1024 +eaAccountName xxxxxxx +eaAccountPassword xxxxxxx +soldierName wildeggtamer +szx 1280 +szy 1024

    so that when i get home the game is already logged in and ready to play…….probably wouldn’t but its possible i’m sure, or perhaps if someone has a media player by their TV, get it to open up windows media player and start the DVD playing or summat……microsoft site has the command lines you can use.

    Reminds me of one of these..

    No offence but you’d have to be a right lazy fook if you used your mobile to turn an MP3 on.. or if its for when your out of the house, why on earth would you want to activate one if your not there.. some people although very inteligent, have far too much time on thier hands.. and what if you forgot to turn speakers on huh?

    bah

    🙂

    p.s. Might have known they’d be from USA 😉
