I've done everything I've read here.  This damn thing disconnects me if I'm idle even 5 minutes!!!!  What the hell happens if I'm downloading a long program (such as some anti-virus updates)?  Will it disconnect me if I'm not here and it's in the middle of a download?  This stinks, stinks, stinks.  I've been with MSN forever, but this just might be the straw that breaks the camel's back.  Do any of you MVPs feed back this info?

No, it's not MSN Messenger.  It's MSN, Version 5.6.  I don't have Messenger.

Hello Fred,
 
   A majority of MVPs are gone this week at an MVP Summit in Redmond, Washington.
 
   Have you tried the instructions in this support services page?

Paul, I know your trying to be helpful, but its been pointed out several times before that regardless of what that KB article says, that setting is irrelevant when using the MSN software.
