theblondeone989 answered Wednesday November 24 2004, 3:03 am: Mine did that too. It might be because of your power settings. A lot of computers come set up to go to stand by after every so long, as to conserve power. Just go to your options page and change it.

Baby2Gurlie7 answered Thursday November 11 2004, 6:10 pm: You probably have to change the settings for that. If you have a screen saver or something, try turning that off. And change the idle thing on your AIM. Or maybe your DSL just disconnects and then reconnects. [ Baby2Gurlie7's advice column | Ask Baby2Gurlie7 A Question ]
