I recently installed VL7.0 Std on an older 2003 Gateway computer. It works fine with one exception. For some reason, if I leave the computer idle for 5 minutes it logs me out of my user account and I lose my downloads, etc. What causes this? I've disabled the screensaver and it still does it. Any clues?

Check your power saving settings.

Thanks Bigpaws, I should have thought of that. I've tweaked my XFCE Power Manager and I'll see if that solves the problem. :-)
