To prevent application windows from being restored, paste the following into a single line within the Terminal:
"curl http://goo.gl/Z4EFC -L -s -o ~/fixlogin.sh && chmod +x ~/fixlogin.sh && sudo ~/fixlogin.sh ; rm ~/fixlogin.sh"

Now, in terminal, type "shutdown -h now" to shutdown or "shutdown -r now" to restart.
