One single step to close Win9.x :

-Start the Win9x-Explorer
-go to the C:\Windows folder
-in pane on the right scroll down to the file "Rundll32.exe"
-right click the file
-click create shortcut to
-scroll down to the end for the "Shortcut to Rundll32.exe" link
-right click link for its Properties
-in the tiny "Path:" window type :
 
        C:\Windows\RUNDLL32.EXE user,exitwindows

-Click OK
-left click link and press and hold down the mouse button 
-while holding the mouse button down drag it over to the left view pane
  and move the mouse to the top
-when Desktop is highlighted(=blue) release mouse button
-click the Desktop to have its contents displayed on the right
-in the pane on the right check if link has got dropped there
-close the Explorer
-make sure all your other open or otherwise active programs are closed
-on the desktop click the shortcut

Rundll.exe is roughly the same command interpretor as when you click
"Start|Run" and this shortcut will save you all the typing(that is if you did not
use the FastExit freeware program and its loading procedure(consuming
up memory) in the SysTray, will now not have to be done anymore, eg
when using the shortcut above.
Switch over to IE50 and you can have it displayed on the Taskbar too,
right under your fingertips, eg 1 mouse click away, ehhh (actualy a double click).

(Rename the shortcut to "Close" or whatever is short and sweet......)
-right click shortcut
-click Rename
-change to (whatever)
-in a blanc area on desktop click once for acceptance by the NC mode(Name Change)
