If you use America Online (AOL) for your internet connection, you
should be aware that AOL can limit your inactivity on the web and
disconnect you from the internet if you are not a current, active
user. Uploading files appears to be inactivity to AOL. It is
recommended that you keep your AOL email account open at the same
time you are uploading your files. This can trick AOL programming
into thinking you are still active on the internet, thereby
preventing the possibility of getting disconnected during your file upload.
