Earlier quoted context omitted.

You were running NT4 Terminal Server Edition?

Yes, i think so. It was so long ago and it was my first programming role!

AFAIK that edition had logoff instead of shutdown on the Start menu for that reason. You can still access shutdown by hitting Ctrl-Alt-Del on the console or clicking Windows NT Security.

It was so long ago I have no idea. I defo vividly remember that I shut it down via the start menu, just one of many moments that stick out :)
