On most small computers, pressing and holding the power button for a few seconds will force a shutdown. This (or turning off the power supply, or taking the final option of the "110 reset" by literally unplugging the computer) is not a "clean" shutdown, but it may be your only option if the computer is otherwise unresponsive.
Short of that, you might try one or more of the following to see if you can bring the computer back to a responsive state so that you can shut it down more cleanly.
Esc
Alt-F4
Ctrl-Alt-Del
You might also try logging in remotely and issuing whatever the computer's shutdown command is (you didn't specify the operating system, so it's hard to be more specific on this, but some variation on "shutdown" is pretty common).

If you want to shut down the computer, usually "poweroff" or "shutdown -h now" would do. If you want to exit from the graphical interface, you typically just need to shut down the X server (the graphical session generally runs through a display manager session or your startx command)
Why does your computer shut down while im gone?
I assume you're using Microsoft Vista on your computer. Also, it depends on your definition of "shut down". Is it "Sleep" mode or really a real actual "Power Off" shutdown? or "Hibernation" mode? The most probable reason is that your computer is set to "Hibernate". This normally kicks in when your computer is running on battery mode (ie, a notebook) when you're away. After x minute (depending on settings), your computer will go into hibernation; to know if you were hibernating; switch on the PC; if the computer boots up to the same exact state when you left it (ie, all the programs were still running and data available), then you were in either hibernation mode (I assume it is not in sleep mode) Click the Start button > Control Panel > Power Option > Change Plan Setting You will be able to change the way your computer behave from there. It will be good to know if your computer is still connected to the power (is your power still on?) when you're away. This affects when/if the Hibernation mode will kick in. Good luck!
