IE Timeout Interval

[bryan]

How do I change the timeout setting for Internet Explorer in Win 98? I
cannot seem to download anything without IE timing out (unless I baby sit the
workstation in order to reply to 'stay connected' every 15 or 20 minutes).
Thank you,

Bryan

There isn't one.

IE isn't timing out. Dial-Up Networking is timing out.

From the Desktop, open My Computer, and then open Dial-Up Networking

Right-click on your Dial-Up connection's icon, and select Properties

In the 'Connect using' panel, click the Configure button
and the click the Connection tab

In the 'Call preferences' panel, put a check mark in the Disconnect box,
and bump the time limit to suit your preference (999 is the max)
