"Shut-Up-and-Shut-Down" Utility

Many versions of Windows ago, there was a utility program that put an
icon on the desktop to enable the user to force all running
applications to close immediately, without any confirmation dialogs
(e.g., "Do you really want to close Program XYZ without saving?")
being displayed. Does anyone know of a Vista-compatible utility that
does this?

Admire people who keep all such links at their fingertips.
