We shut down our computer's every night...sometimes after use if we aren't going to be on them for a while.

As long as it is shutdown without pushing the off/on button it doesn't cause any problems. (at least none that I have ever come across)

Shutting it off also stops any hackers from accessing your computer while not in use.

If you use the off/on button... it places a bunch of "stuff" into a temp file which can/does take up a lot of space.
