What exactly is a "Windows idle time", anyone?

40hz:
You could also go to the hardware properties for your NIC and disable any power management features it has if you're running on a desktop PC.

Some NICs don't always play nicely with Windows' power management service and vice versa. Sometimes 'dumbing down' the interface fixes that problem.

tslim:
Decent download managers will disable Windows' auto-sleep function while active, just like decent media players will. Find a decent download manager? :)

I am using Internet Download Manager, which is actively and quite frequently updated.
The problem is, I fill in a feedback form regarding "Windows idle time problem" and so far no reply from IDM support... sigh!
