You can schedule shutdown.exe (with appropriate switches) to run after x amount of idle time, I'm not sure if that's exactly what your asking though.

A basic knowledge of scripting in C or C++ would let you do that, a time value set to count down till the event operates, the event being shutdown.exe.

Im dont really have a basic knowledge YET but it can be done, set it for like 5 mins. Not sure about remotely though. But certainly from sitting in front of it.
